Summary

Introduction

Within our global health situation, there has been a rapid increase in the number of people with multiple chronic conditions (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2019). IP education (IPE) focuses on learning from, with, and about other professionals (in training) to improve collaboration and quality of care (CAIPE, 2014). IPE is crucial in the transformation of medical, nursing, and public healthcare education in the 21st century (Frenk et al, 2010). Recent reviews showed that IPE is effective in improving attitudes and perceptions towards professionals of other disciplines, and in improving the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and behavior regarding IP collaboration (Guraya & Barr, 2018; Spaulding et al, 2019). IPE has been shown to help healthcare practitioners in their approach to resolve complex issues with clients and has been instrumental in dispelling stereotypes (Guraya & Barr, 2018)
