Abstract:
Several barriers contribute to the failure in achieving competency in Interprofessional Education (IPE). The hybrid IPE modality was designed to enhance student mastery of interprofessional communication and teamwork competencies. A hybrid model of instruction implemented to enhance interprofessional education for students in social work, nursing, and physician assistant programs. There were significant improvements in mastery of competencies as demonstrated through the ICCAS survey, demonstrating the use of hybrid IPE can improve collaboration among interprofessional teams. Hybrid IPE experiences can facilitate student engagement and mastery of IPEC competencies.
