This course is designed to promote interprofessional collaborative strategies for health professional students (nursing, medical, and pharmacy) to implement in working together in providing patient care. Seminars focus on exploring roles of physicians, nurses, pharmacists and other professional members of the health care team. Principles for promoting interprofessional collaboration in providing safe, high quality patient care will be discussed. Students will examine and practice strategies to work effectively on teams and communicate with other health care professionals, such as conflict resolution and effectively interpreting discipline specific jargon when sharing information. A variety of learning modalities will be used, including simulation, role play, case studies and home visits. Nursing, medical, and pharmacy students will examine principles of collaboration to enhance interprofessional communication, teamwork and collaboration in developing therapeutic relationships with older adults. The Worth and Jane Daniels Initiative supports this two-part series courses targeting pre-licensure students, as well as learning at the advanced practice level for nurse practitioner students, resident physicians, and pharmacy students to learn the skills of interprofessional collaboration while caring for complex community-based older patients.
