Role Clarification in Interprofessional Teams

Within each course in the IPE curriculum, students from each health profession bring forth their own unique roles and responsibilities into the activity. Roles are clarified in relation to the other health professions students and opportunities for role overlap are discussed. When practiced collaboratively, students meet the targeted course learning objectives.

IPE 502 Students in the Classroom

IPEA 502 Patient Centred Care

Students from Dietetics, Genetic Counselling, Medicine, Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Social Work and Speech-Language Pathology first gather together to review the learning outcomes of the session focused on patient/family/community-centred care and to plan for small group interactive simulations that facilitate learning with, from and about each other.

Patient-Centred Care in Action

Students from different healthcare programs are faced with an authentic patient-family scenario at the Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning Simulation. Students work as a team preparing an action plan while learning with, from and about each other.

Thank You To our Facilitators

Clinicians and McGill Faculty from a variety of healthcare professions support the IPE program by facilitating small student groups within the IPE courses. Their facilitation provides an enriched learning experience which contributes to satisfaction in both student learning and course evaluation.
