The Test of Geriatric Interdisciplinary Care Planning (TGICP) was developed to evaluate healthcare trainees' ability to create interdisciplinary care plans. This new instrument uses case studies to assess skills gained from the Geriatric Interdisciplinary Team Training (GITT) program.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Medical Education
  • Health Professions Training

Background:

  • The Geriatric Interdisciplinary Team Training (GITT) program has trained over 1800 health professionals in the US.
  • Evaluating the effectiveness of such educational interventions presents significant challenges.
  • Core measures are essential for assessing skill development post-training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development of the Test of Geriatric Interdisciplinary Care Planning (TGICP).
  • To introduce an innovative instrument for assessing interdisciplinary care planning skills.
  • To provide a mechanism for quantifying and correlating trainee responses within the GITT program.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a two-part instrument using case study methodology.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Creation and validation of case studies for the TGICP.
  • Establishment of a questionnaire framework and a coding/scoring mechanism for response evaluation.
  • Main Results:

    • The TGICP instrument was developed as a core measure for the GITT program.
    • The instrument utilizes case studies to simulate real-world geriatric care planning scenarios.
    • A systematic approach for coding and scoring trainee responses was established.

    Conclusions:

    • The TGICP offers an innovative method for evaluating interdisciplinary care planning skills in health professions trainees.
    • This instrument supports the assessment of effectiveness for the Geriatric Interdisciplinary Team Training (GITT) program.
    • The development process focused on creating a valid and reliable tool for assessing complex geriatric care planning abilities.
