Poster Description: Background: Many learners lack necessary lived or clinical experience necessary to understand the stigma associated with substance use disorder (SUD) and the implications on healthcare. This IPE session aims to address that gap by providing a presentation from a physician struggling with SUD coupled with a dramatic recreation of events in the life of an addicted person (based on the life experiences of the presenter), with small-group facilitator-led discussion and…
Poster Description: Background: To address the complex health needs of the population, interprofessional education (IPE) is necessary to help students develop competencies for interprofessional collaborative practice, including interprofessional communication. The University of Wisconsin Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education (UW CIPE) offers the annual Interprofessional Communication Competency Module (ICCM) as one of four modules. The ICCM is offered to first-year…
Background: To improve health outcomes, the social determinants of health (SDoH) need to be integrated throughout prelicensure education, with experiential learning to aid in transferring theory to practice. Interprofessional education (IPE) is vital because a multifaceted, team-based approach is needed for complex SDoH. A 3-day IPE simulation intervention, Teaming Up for Community Health (TUCH), was designed to provide experiential learning on team-based care to address SDoH. …
Poster Description: Background: The Partnering to Transform Health Outcomes with Persons with Intellectual Disabilities (PATH-PWIDD) Program, funded by the Administration for Community Living, is a workforce development program aimed at improving the education of healthcare professional students in the health of persons with IDD through implementation of interprofessional curricular materials and practice experiences at our five core partner institutions. Design: The Collective…
Poster Description: Objective: Patients’ evaluation of interprofessional healthcare teams is critical to understanding team-based care. As part of an educational experience, patients/families were interviewed by interprofessional teams of healthcare students. The objective of this study was to describe patient’s/family’s opportunity to evaluate the interprofessional teams and their perceptions of interacting with the teams. Methods: Longitudinal Interprofessional Family-Based…
Poster Description: Background:  Interprofessional bedside rounding (IBR) is a strategy for delivering high value care and teaching patient-centered care but is not consistently implemented effectively in hospitals. We pilot-tested an IBR model in a brain rescue unit at an urban teaching hospital and conducted a qualitative study examining perceptions of IBR among the interprofessional healthcare team (I-HCT). Design:  Using a semi-structured interview guide, we…
Background: Aphasia affects at least 2,000,000 people in the United States and creates communication difficulties which affect quality of life for the person with aphasia, their communication partners, and their caregivers. Aphasia may be accompanied by changes in physical abilities and other mental abilities as well. Many of these patients have health needs after exhausting their benefits. Caregivers are at higher risk for not accessing needed services for themselves. Our pilot clinic for…
Poster Description: The acute care setting is among the most challenging fieldwork experiences for occupational therapy students, with a high rate of failure (Nicola-Richmond et al., 2017). Success in level II acute care fieldwork requires a strong background of medical knowledge, clinical skills, professional behaviors, and the ability to manage challenges of the hospital environment (Kemp & Crabtree, 2018). In addition, students must be prepared to collaborate with an interprofessional…
Poster Description: Background: Adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD) are a significantly underserved population in terms of health care. People with I/DD experience consequences from the lack of preparation most health profession students have in working with people with these disabilities. People with I/DD frequently have adverse experiences in medical settings and many practicing care providers lack confidence in treating people with I/DD. At the same time, many…
Poster Description: Background: While critical to improving learning and health care outcomes, large-scale clinical interprofessional education (IPE) within authentic clinical learning environments (CLEs) remains challenging. As a bridge to transition from preclinical to clinical IPE at a large academic health center, our team designed and piloted a self-guided, para-clinical IPE experience that will allow hundreds of interprofessional student groups to apply IPEC-derived teamwork…
