Abstract

Many studies of educational activities are focused on results gathered from surveys and performance data of the learner. However, the impact of participation in educational activities on the facilitator, particularly those involving interprofessional practice and education (IPE), should not be ignored. By facilitating these sessions, educators and healthcare providers may be exposed to professions unfamiliar to them as compared to their normal professional practice. In this study, a retrospective pre-post survey was utilized to evaluate the impact of facilitation on IPE facilitators’ (1.) understanding of the IPE Core Competencies as described by the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC), (2) clinical communication, and (3) collaboration opportunities.

Results indicated statistical significance related to the improved understanding of roles and responsibilities of professions and IPE Core Competencies. Neither impact on collaboration nor communication in the clinical setting was found to be significant during this study. Further investigation narrowing the scope of professions and their concurrent interactions with other disciplines may be warranted.
