Abstract
An interprofessional education activity (IPE) using visual art was implemented to develop student empathy for older adults’ lived experiences and understanding of the age-friendly healthcare 4Ms framework. Graduate students in clinical psychology, pharmacy, physician assistant, and physical therapy participated. The activity involved an introduction to the 4Ms, submitting original photographs of older adults in the context of the 4Ms, and a photography exhibition. At the exhibition, students viewed images in interprofessional groups and discussed the images using a modified visual thinking strategy followed by a facilitated discussion. Pre/post surveys for 4Ms knowledge, empathy, interprofessional learning, and satisfaction were completed. Positive changes occurred in empathy, attitudes toward IPE, 4Ms knowledge, and satisfaction. Group discussion themes identified include recognition of the ambiguity of the lived experience; awareness of cognitive bias; and changing perspective. Activities combining visual art and IPE may develop empathy and knowledge of age-friendly care in health sciences students.
