Hoitotiimeille

Hoitotiimeille is a Finnish grammatical form rather than a standalone concept. It is the allative plural form of the compound noun hoitotiimi, which means care team or treatment team. The allative suffix -lle indicates direction toward or for something, so hoitotiimeille translates roughly as “to the care teams” or “for the care teams.” As such, hoitotiimeille is used to mark the recipient or beneficiary of an action in sentences.

Hoitotiimi is formed from hoito, meaning care or treatment, and tiimi, meaning team. The plural nominative is hoitotiimit, and other common forms include hoitotiimien (genitive) and hoitotiimejä (partitive). In context, hoitotiimeille appears in constructions such as “Tiedot lähetettiin hoitotiimeille” (The information was sent to the care teams) or “Kysely lähetettiin hoitotiimeille” (The survey was sent to the care teams).

In Finnish healthcare usage, hoitotiimeistä and hoitotiimeillä describe different relationships: hoitotiimi in the nominative, hoitotiimille to/for the care teams, hoitotiimeissä in or within the care teams, and hoitotiimien the care teams’ (genitive). The term reflects the common practice of organizing patient care into collaborative teams that may include physicians, nurses, therapists, and other professionals, with communications and responsibilities directed toward these teams.

Overall, hoitotiimeille functions as a routine case form in Finnish, encoding the target of an action rather than naming a specific organization or program.
