Abstract

This study assessed 119 second-year pharmacy and dental students’ knowledge and attitudes toward interprofessional collaboration (IPC) before and after a two-hour curricular event held in May 2017. The event was associated with a significant improvement in the students’ attitudes toward IPC on six of the 21 items assessed (p < 0.05). Pharmacy students had significantly different mean attitude scores than dental students on 18 of the 21 IPC-related items assessed (p < 0.05). This interprofessional event (IPE) allowed for collaboration between dental and pharmacy students and faculty and improved students’ acceptance of and attitudes toward IPC.
