“…Ultimately, IPE aims to create more effective systems of interprofessional practice, defined as a higher form of practice wherein health care professionals from different disciplines make up a team, unique to the individual client-patient, that works with the client to develop a unified decision (National Academies of Practice, 2012). IPP results in safer and more efficient delivery of health care (Guitard, Dubouloz, Savard, Metthé, & Brasset-Latulippe, 2010) as well as greater patient satisfaction (Howell, Wittman, & Bundy, 2012;Kent & Keating, 2013;Shiyanbola, Lammers, Randall, & Richards, 2012;Solomon & Risdon, 2011), thus validating the need to embed IPE into entry-level preparation for occupational therapy practitioners.…”
