Interprofessional Education
What is Interprofessional Education and Practice?
The professional schools of °µÍø½ûÇøChicago are committed to working together to promote interprofessional education and practice. The goal of interprofessional education is to prepare future clinicians and professionals to work together as a team to improve patient and population health. This includes engaging in foundational research on interprofessional education/collaborative practice (IPE/C); the use of interprofessional collaborative practice models to provide better care for patients; and ultimately transforming healthcare by championing interprofessional models that are patient centered and result in safe, high-quality, cost-effective care.
