Allied health professionals are integral to these models, and are a unique group deserving of explicit focus because of the way they come from varied origins, comprise many professions, work in many groupings and have relatively flat hierarchical structures, as distinct to other heath professions. The…

The vast majority of health professions accreditation councils require interprofessional education as part of their standards or guidance (HPAC, 2020). Yet the demands of program accreditation and the varying formats of programs often make achieving interprofessional education at the highest level of Miller's model (1990) (knows how, shows how, does) challenging to implement. A higher education institution with over 25 health programs, including programs at the certificate, associate,…
