Abstract
Background
Nurses and social workers are frontline providers to at-risk patients of substance and alcohol abuse but have limited education.
Methods
A one-semester program incorporated multimodal education and simulated patients teaching graduate nursing and social work students SBIRT and interprofessional skills. Students completed the Interprofessional Collaborative Competency Assessment Scale pre- and post-program measuring interprofessional competencies.
Results
One hundred graduate students (58 social work, 42 nursing) participated across two cohorts. There was significant increase in total competency post-program, t(99) = 7.19, p < .001, and among all subscales.
Conclusion
Multimodal education with simulation increases graduate students’ interprofessional competency, preparing them for careers with at-risk patients.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation.
We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria:
Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation
Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation
Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation
Leadership for simulation
Simulation operations
Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
