Blending interprofessional education and simulation learning: A mixed-methods study of an interprofessional learning experience with nursing and occupational therapy students

La educación interprofesional en el desarrollo de la identidad profesional en terapia ocupacional: una revisión de alcance

“…Además, el trabajo en equipo y la colaboración entre profesiones, sirve para aumentar la comprensión de rol de otras disciplinas, y comprender el valor del trabajo en equipo (Page et al, 2021a). Asimismo, este tipo de intervenciones simuladas en el aula, según Washington et al (2022) favorece la colaboración y la socialización interprofesionales con el objetivo de brindar una práctica de atención y calidad centrada en la persona.…”

Interprofessional simulation with nursing and occupational therapy students: Comparing a virtual and in-person event

“…Findings from both groups adds to previous research on the efficacy of this IPE simulation. 14 Future research should continue to compare various types of IPE simulations, including various types of virtual modalities, in order to support educators to be able to select and design delivery modes that best meet logistical needs and effectively prepare healthcare students from different professions to collaborate in practice.…”

“…The 2 hour virtual simulation was adapted from the same scenario as an in-person simulation designed prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. 14 A prior in-person simulation was recorded from a previous year for educational purposes. In the previously recorded in-person simulation, students provided care in an acute care hospital setting for a trained professional standardized patient who portrayed an individual with a moderate traumatic brain injury after falling and hitting their head.…”

“…The in-person simulation was created and implemented prior to the shift to online instruction in 2020, as indicated above, and was moved back in-person for the 2022 simulation. 14 During the in-person simulation, which spanned three and half hours, students provided interprofessional care in an acute care hospital setting for the trained professional standardized patient, as described previously. Two nursing students and two OT students were in the simulation room, and the rest of the students observed.…”

An Exploration of Student Perception Toward Interprofessional High-Fidelity Clinical Simulation

“… 11 Similarly, poor collaboration and communication between disciplines has been associated with medical errors and adversely affect healthcare. 12 , 13 Interprofessional simulation has already demonstrated the potential for improving teamwork 14 and communication, 15 although it is more frequently utilized in post-registration professional development in the workplace as opposed to students in a university setting. 16…”
