Promoting Interprofessional Collaboration in Biomedical Research
Highlights
Health professionals working in silos or in ways that are not collaborative is no longer sustainable for healthcare [1]
For over 20 years national and international professional organizations have sought the reform necessary to educate health professional student in an interprofessional manner. The impetus for this reform came in 2000 when the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released the report “To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System”[1]. This influential document outlined the deficits in health care quality and safety in the United States and how the development of interdisciplinary teams could be solution
The World Health Organization’s (WHO) 2010 Framework for Action on Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice suggested that interprofessional education (IPE) training would seek to have trainees learn “with, from, and about” one another’s disciplines, training, and scopes of practice as a way to increase health care quality and safety [3]
Summary
Health professionals working in silos or in ways that are not collaborative is no longer sustainable for healthcare [1]. In 2003, the IOM restated the urgency to promote interprofessional education (IPE) in the curriculum for all health care professions to increase health care quality [2] .
