["That One Can See How it is Supposed to be." Conception, Piloting and Evaluation of an Interprofessional Rehabilitation-Related Module for the Training Courses in Medicine, Nursing, and Physiotherapy].

Background: Considering the growing rehabilitative care requirements, good interprofessional cooperation is of central relevance for health care professions and is increasingly demanded. Interprofessional cooperation does not yet play a significant role in health professions' education, despite the fact that it is considered an important element of success in outcome- and patient-centered health care. The field of rehabilitation lacks interprofessional teaching concepts and material.

Methods: An interprofessional team of instructors developed the didactic and thematic concept for the module. The module focuses on rehabilitation and discharge management. The learning objectives were developed based on the National Competency-Based Catalogue of Learning Objectives for Medicine. The formative evaluation was based on a questionnaire filled out by the students and the learning guides.

Results: 47 participants took part in three runs. The results of the formative evaluation demonstrate that the module was overall well received. The trainees rated the module more favorably than the medical students. While participants emphasized the good practical eye-to-eye interaction between the professions and the honest feedback conversation, they also pointed to the contrast they perceived to their everyday practice. They also wished for more time having verbal interprofessional exchange. The medical students criticized that interprofessional modules were only offered in their final year.

Conclusion: To the author's knowledge, this is the first publication of an interprofessional module on rehabilitation and discharge management including piloting and positive evaluation for the three professional groups of medicine, nursing and physical therapy. Improvement suggestions of the participants led to modifications that will be realized in the next version of the module. The course sets important impulses for the further development of interprofessional cooperation and the teaching of rehabilitation-related skills. The modular package is available to other lecturers in a free online platform for rehabilitation-related teaching materials.
