| description | Abstract This interprofessional team training activity was created to educate healthcare professions students regarding the basics of interprofessional team-based care, and give them the opportunity to practice functioning as an interprofessional team to develop a plan-of-care for an older patient. This 2.5-hour activity includes an overview of interprofessional teams, followed by observation of an older adult interview by faculty from each discipline. Students divide into 21 to 23 small groups, where faculty members facilitate development of a collaborative care plan based on information learned through the interview. Retrospective pre- and postassessments are completed at the end of the small-group session. The training was universally well-received by the students. It was also viewed as a valuable training opportunity and resource by all faculty involved, as evidenced by the continued inclusion of the training in the various disciplines' curricula, with requests made to accommodate increased numbers of students. As part of the evaluation, participants rated the impact of the interview and small-group sessions on their awareness of the multiple perspectives that needed to be considered when designing a care plan, and what their individual disciplines could contribute. Students' scores on individual items suggested concerns about teams related to the time required for team care. Additionally, both before and after this resource, students felt the physician should function as the team leader. |
