The development of interprofessional goals has become commonplace in healthcare practice and education. However, simply establishing goals does not ensure assimilation to practice, sustainability, or leadership development. Integration of interprofessional education and practice are paramount for effective teams that provide improved patient outcomes and can be accomplished through a competency-based approach. This lightning talk will provide a framework for developing interprofessional…

Background: Fall prevention is a multi-factorial challenge requiring a unified, interprofessional approach to develop and implement effective, individualized strategies. Pre-service students need training in collaborative assessment and intervention to work together in addressing the complexity of mitigating falls for community-dwelling older adults. This project aimed to guide students to create a fall prevention plan that reflected interprofessional collaboration for community-dwelling…

Demands on interprofessional leaders in healthcare and education have significantly worsened the problem of burnout. This seminar is an intervention designed to equip both current and emerging IPE leaders with actionable strategies to combat burnout and cultivate sustainable well-being. We will move beyond individual coping mechanisms to explore systemic solutions, emphasizing the power of mentorship networks and communities of practice. Our insights will draw from the U.S. Surgeon General's…

This session will address the conference theme of preparing students for interprofessional collaborative practice. Healthcare professionals working with pediatric populations must understand and appreciate the contributions of various disciplines to treatment and child outcomes. Students and trainees in all fields should recognize that they do not have all the answers and will need to rely on the expertise available within multidisciplinary teams. As part of this initiative, occupational…

A primary objective of the University of Michigan (U-M) Center for Interprofessional Education (IPE) is to equip graduates with the skills and competencies necessary to engage effectively with interprofessional teams, with the goal of improving quality of health and healthcare to patients, families, and communities. To advance this goal, the IPE Curriculum Committee launched a multi-phased initiative to define and implement a comprehensive IPE framework. This initiative focused on…

This lightning talk describes training for interprofessional cohorts of advanced learners. We cover the rationale, pilot and full implementation of the program, training topics, and assessment. Finally, we share lessons learned and modifications from initial implementation. The WHO (2010) called for preparing faculty to facilitate IPE. However, faculty feel ill-prepared to facilitate IPE (Ratka et al., 2017). Clinicians are not trained as educators or IPE facilitators. IPE Programs…

The Creighton Interprofessional Collaborative Evaluation (C-ICE) tool plays a key role in assessing students' ability to demonstrate the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) Core Competencies within both clinical and simulated settings. The C-ICE is recognized as the only instrument to assess behavioral change in a team's performance, evaluating collaboration, leadership, and communication skills. IPEC’s revised competencies in 2023 necessitate a review and update of the C-ICE…

Effective interprofessional communication is essential for high-quality, safe, and coordinated care across all healthcare settings. This communication spans verbal and written exchanges, digital and analogue tools, and includes both synchronous and asynchronous interactions. Despite this complexity, current interprofessional education frequently centers on hospital-based, face-to-face scenarios, which do not reflect the distributed, episodic, and often layered communication that occurs in…
