Abstract
Interprofessional education (IPE) is a learning experience focused on collaboration, preparing health professionals to improve patient care. This article explores how IPE with dietetic interns in training has influenced views and practices of pediatric dentists after graduation. Surveys were e-mailed to 189 alumni who graduated from New York University College of Dentistry's Post Graduate Pediatric Program from 2009 to 2018. Of the 67 surveys received, 44 (23%) were completed. Most alumni found the information learned through IPE relevant to residency (90%) and current practice (84%). Ninety percent of respondents agreed pediatric dental visits should include nutritional counseling. This study supports the positive value of IPE in oral health care and education.
期刊介绍:
Topics in Clinical Nutrition (TICN) is a peer-reviewed, quarterly journal designed as a resource for the continuing education and clinical practice of dietitians and nutritionists. Each issue addresses topics of interest primarily to dietitians and nutritionists, students and interns in professional training programs and other health care personnel involved in the nutritional care of patients. Articles include translational research reports (work that applies new knowledge to practical effect), practice projects, evidence-based literature reviews, case studies and book reviews, and articles that highlight education theory and applied research which share the tools and techniques of nutrition and dietetics education.
