Description
The third annual interprofessional education (IPE) event drew 231 students and 68 faculty and staff members, including participants from the UMB programs at the Universities at Shady Grove (USG) in Rockville. To promote students’ learning to work across disciplines, each of 11 small groups consisted of a mix of schools. And for the first time, each group was assigned a standardized patient to help bring to life the case scenarios that are at the heart of IPE Day. School of Nursing Dean Jane M. Kirschling, PhD, RN, FAAN, who directs the University’s Center for Interprofessional Education, said, "Whether you are caring for people in their communities, hospitals, or another setting of care, you have to be able to work effectively as a member of a team,” she says. “UMB faculty and the Center for Interprofessional Education are committed to providing our students with opportunities to learn with, from, and about one another in order that we can prepare the next generation of health care providers, social workers, and lawyers to be skilled in teamwork."Identifier to cite or link to this item
