Interprofessional education (IPE) enhances healthcare quality. Students reported higher satisfaction with interactive, problem-based learning cases in the IPE program.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare professions education
- Interprofessional collaboration
Background:
- Interprofessional education (IPE) is crucial for improving healthcare quality and patient safety.
- Training future healthcare professionals in IPE is a key strategy.
Purpose of the Study:
- To implement an interprofessional education (IPE) program for various health profession students.
- To assess student satisfaction with different IPE program components, including a clinical case study.
Main Methods:
- Participants included students from Athletic Training, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Physical Therapy, Physician Assistant, Social Work, and Speech-Language Pathology.
- Student satisfaction was evaluated using Likert-scale surveys and open-ended comments.
- Statistical analysis involved independent t-tests to compare satisfaction scores (P<0.05).
Main Results:
- Problem-based learning (PBL) clinical case sessions received significantly higher satisfaction ratings than less interactive sessions (P < 0.0001).
Conclusions:
- Students recognized the benefits of the interprofessional education (IPE) program.
- Collaborative work on clinically relevant problems enhanced student perceptions of the IPE program's value.
