To optimize the interprofessional clinical learning environment (IP-CLE) in ambulatory care and provide quality interprofessional education based on the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) competencies, effective systems and processes should ideally include: 1) an intentional working agreement established by the learners before delivery of care in the IP-CLE, 2) a patient-centered approach to establish and prioritize mutual goals during interprofessional practice (IPP), 3) deliberate reflection on the working agreement to promote constructive revisions between sessions of care…
As accreditation standards have changed to require interprofessional experiences for health professions students in the classroom and in practice, faculty development and curriculum must evolve to embrace the newer standards. The purpose of this presentation is to disseminate a solutions-oriented, active process and to discuss progress in expanding IPE faculty development programming across a comprehensive academic health center. We will discuss the structure and mission of our campus-wide interprofessional organization and the related programming and purpose of our faculty development…

Didactic and episodic experiences may not provide learners with skills to establish/advance teamwork in practice. A model which requires students establish “ground rules” for team-based care delivery and provides faculty-led reflection can support skill development while addressing Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) competencies. Our specific aims include assessment of student perceptions after participation in this model using a validated interprofessional survey and a quantitative/…
