Interprofessional Education at ²ÝÝ®ÊÓÆµ
The ²ÝÝ®ÊÓÆµ School of Pharmacy is committed to advancing a collaborative care model that embraces the role of all health care professionals in the care of patients. ²ÝÝ®ÊÓÆµ is a national leader in interprofessional education and students at the School of Pharmacy have an opportunity to work with other health professions including medicine, dental, physician assistants, dental hygiene, social work, nursing, and physical and occupational therapy.
The Interprofessional Education (IPE) curricular plan for the ²ÝÝ®ÊÓÆµ School of Pharmacy is organized around the four recommended characteristics set forth by the 2019 HPAC Guidance on Developing Quality Interprofessional Education for the Health Professions document (Health Professions Accreditors Collaborative 2019). The IPE curricular plan serves to identify the rationale, outcome-based goals, design, and assessment and evaluation methods that will ensure high quality, fully integrated, and purposeful IPE learning in the School of Pharmacy’s didactic curricula. The curricular plan is designed to prepare learners to enter their experiential curricular experiences with interprofessional knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to engage in interprofessional collaborative practice. The experiential curriculum provides an environment for students to demonstrate interprofessional teamwork and practice.
