Abstract:
With current global healthcare trends, there is a growing need for interprofessional education (IPE) and interprofessional practice (IPP) in collaborative care of persons with chronic medical conditions. Tools and models for IPE and IPP are now available, but they are not yet in widespread use. Developmental-behavioural paediatrics is a medical discipline that is characterized by IPP with an encouraging emergence of this speciality in India and other developing countries. This article provides an overview of IPE and IPP, followed by a precise account of an Indian institution, which provides services to children suffering from neurodevelopmental disorders utilizing an IPP approach and implementing IPE to its trainees.
