Abstract
Abstract: Competence in interprofessional collaboration is essential for safe patient outcomes. This study examined the impact of an interprofessional telehealth pharmacology simulation on prelicensure nursing and pharmacy students' perceptions of interprofessional roles. A pretest-posttest design was used to compare participants' perceptions of interprofessional roles prior to and following the simulation. Data were collected using the Interdisciplinary Education Perception Scale (IEPS). Paired-samples t -tests showed statistically significant increases in scores for both the full IEPS ( n = 99) and two subscales, Competency and Autonomy ( n = 99) and Perception of Actual Cooperation ( n = 99). Nurse educators should provide regular interprofessional experiences to foster learners' competence in interprofessional collaboration and communication.
期刊介绍:
A publication of the National League for Nursing, Nursing Education Perspectives is a peer-reviewed, bimonthly journal that provides evidence for best practices in nursing education. Through the publication of rigorously designed studies, the journal contributes to the advancement of the science of nursing education. It serves as a forum for research and innovation regarding teaching and learning, curricula, technology, and other issues important to nursing education. Today, as nurse educators strive to advance research in nursing education and break away from established patterns and chart new pathways in nursing education, Nursing Education Perspectives is a vital resource. Nursing Education Perspectives is housed in the NLN Chamberlain College of Nursing for the Advancement of the Science of Nursing Education.
