Abstract
Pollard’s paper (2009) examines the interprofessional learning experiences of student nurses during their clinical placement. It is timely, given the emphasis by the UK National Health Service that Health and Social Care prequalifying programmes in the UK include interprofessional learning opportunities for students (DOH 2001). In Australia, specific requirements have not been mandated. However, the Australian Nursing Federation (ANF), in their submission to the National Health and Hospitals Reform Commission, has recommended that the Australian Government provide funding to universities for undergraduate nursing courses to move to an interdisciplinary model of education (ANF 2008).
