Sharing a Piece of the PIIE: Program of International Interprofessional Education/Programa Internacional
Background:
Interprofessional education and global health are priorities in health professions education. Health organizations such as the Institute of Medicine and the World Health Organization recommend that education of health care providers be interdisciplinary and use technology.
Method:
A webinar took place between adult gerontology nurse practitioner (AGNP) students in the United States and the providers of a clinic in the Dominican Republic. The providers from the Dominican Republic presented a case typical of their practices but one with which AGNP students were not familiar. Similarly, the AGNP students presented a case representing new information for the Dominican providers.
Results:
All participants responded positively to the webinar, primarily because of the technological and case-based approach to learning; they benefitted from disease review and interprofessional collaboration.
Conclusion:
A webinar format across clinical settings and countries is a novel interprofessional way to disseminate information in a mutually beneficial way.
