Pilot Study on Inter-Professional Team Building - Teach Together and Learn Together
Objectives: To promote a cohesive atmosphere between different health profession students by Inter-Professional Education Training and assess its effectiveness. Method: A prospective pilot study was conducted at Saveetha Medical College, Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department. Three sets of two undergraduate students each from Medicine, Nursing and Physiotherapy formed a team and were given a case, which they followed from admission to discharge and were also given structured activities. Team members shared the knowledge of their respective professions. Team members were evaluated by pre and post-test on the knowledge and skill acquired in the area of understanding of the other relevant disciplines. Findings: Knowledge and skill levels were assessed pre and post training and was seen to increase from 22% to 98%. The skill level of the members of the team members in the other relevant professions was found to increase by 90%. Confidence level after training rose to 94%. Participants appreciated the cohesive atmosphere between team members. Applications: For inter-professional education faculty members play a crucial role. Complex medical issues can be best addressed by inter-professional teams.
