Foundations of Interprofessional Education and Practice Part I

This course introduces experiences that will teach students how to work with other health disciplines, use the knowledge of their own profession to contribute to patient care within their scope, effectively communicate with professionals of other fields in a responsive and responsible manner, and apply relationship-building values and the principles of team dynamics to work effectively with interprofessional team members to enhance care. The course may consist of, but will not be limited to, three possible types of IPE activities (simulation based in the med sim-lab, case-based in class and virtual software platform) to address a given patient case.
