Interprofessional Collaboratio

Catalog description

This course is designed to prepare healthcare students to apply the core competencies of interprofessional collaborative practice based on the core competencies established by the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC). Students will move beyond viewing the delivery of healthcare in traditional “silos” to explore the benefits of interprofessional collaborative practices which seek to provide safe, high-quality, accessible, patient-centered care. Students will learn about the values/ethics for interprofessional healthcare collaboration, the roles and responsibilities of various healthcare professionals, how to communicate with other healthcare professionals, and how to function as a part of an interprofessional team.
