Current Projects
Adding to what we did previously, this year we are tackling more projects, including;
- Design and implement an interdisciplinary simulation scenario with Diagnostic Imaging and Radiation Oncology students intervening on a patient going into anaphylactic shock during a CT scan.
- Design and implement an interdisciplinary simulation scenario with Physiotherapy Technology and Social Service students intervening on a geriatric patient who is resistant to leave their home.
- Design an interprofessional education learning opportunity between Medical Ultrasound Technology and Physiotherapy Technology students where they work on a common cardiac case.
- Design an interprofessional education learning opportunity between Biomedical Laboratory Technology and Nursing students on the importance of procurement and specimen sampling.
- Design an interprofessional education learning opportunity between five of the disciplines regarding the common skill of patient transfers.
- Design a common medical case, a prostate cancer patient, study that all disciplines can use throughout the students learning.
- Develop a mechanism to recruit and include more real-life patients into the current and future IPE learning opportunities.
- Continually support and maintain current IPE learning opportunities throughout the students 3-year journey. See video .
- Continually learn how we design by modifying our design approach. See current model .
- Continually search and apply for research grant opportunities to help determine the effectiveness of an IPE program.
- Continually support the design and implementation of para-academic opportunities for the students to learn from each other.
Previous Projects
Academic year 2021-2022
- Creating common medical cases across the 7 med tech and social service disciplines – funding from a 2-year ECQ grant
- Completing a 2-day workshop on medical simulation and the writing of simulation cases
- Examining branching scenario software and how it can be used in the context of IPE
- Implementing a Role Clarification in class activity between first year students across 4 disciplines
- Implementing an online forum for students within the med tech and social service programs to connect and support each other
- Examining the overlaps between the seven disciplines and extracting common program competencies.
- Working with the Learning Communities program to explore the common program competency of team functioning amongst the internship and fieldwork courses.
