Abstract:
This study reports on a pilot study of the effect of an inter-professional course for medical and nursing students in how to collaborate in the conduct of a ward round. A mixed group of 13 medical and 12 nursing students attended a one-day course. They worked together in small groups training in communication and collaborative skills using a framework for ward rounds in a simulated clinical ward environment. The course was evaluated on standard evaluation forms and through focus group interviews. The programme was highly rated by both of the groups and considered most relevant, well situated and efficient. Next term the training course will be extended to include twice as many students.
