“…The use of SPs for IPE is routinely used in the education of medical students (Blue et al, 2010) and nursing students (Meleis, 2016) as well as in the education of students from allied health disciplines (Schwindt et al, 2017). While IPE has recently begun to receive more systematic discussion and implementation in CSD (e.g., Gurevich et al, 2019;Ludwig et al, 2019;Rosa-Lugo et al, 2017), very few CSD studies have used SPs for IPE (see reviews by Wallace et al, 2017;Zraick et al, 2014). A recent IPE study which used SPs was conducted by Noureddine, Hagge, and Brady (2016), who had an SP who was a stroke survivor portray a person with aphasia, apraxia of speech, and left hemiparesis.…”

Standardized patients (SPs) are increasingly being used with students in the field of communication sciences and disorders (CSD). The purpose of this paper is to describe the use of SPs with CSD students. Challenges to the clinical education of students are described, and a call is made to expand the use of SPs to facilitate student learning of clinical skills and to assess students’ clinical competency.

“…More specifically, IPE has been shown to help students understand the roles and responsibilities of their interprofessional peers, recognize overlap in their professional functions and develop positive attitudes towards other professionals [8][9][10][11]. Health profession educators have used IPE to educate students on healthcare issues common across disciplines including medical ethics, professionalism, empathy, teamwork and addressing medical errors [12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

Impact of an Interprofessional Education Activity on Student Knowledge and Attitudes Regarding Patient Safety

This study aimed to measure the impact of an interprofessional education (IPE) activity on student knowledge and attitudes regarding patient safety. Two 4 h IPE activities were designed to provide students with foundational information regarding patient safety. Interprofessional teams discussed the individual curricula and roles/responsibilities of each represented health profession. Teams then served on a mock committee tasked with completing a root cause analysis of a fictitious sentinel event. Students completed a pre/post-quiz and pre/post-attitudes survey to measure knowledge and attitudes. Five months later, students reconvened to serve on a second mock sentinel event committee. Students completed a post-activity survey after the second activity. Four hundred and seven students participated in the first activity, while two hundred and eighty participated in the second activity. Quiz score comparisons revealed improved knowledge, with post-quiz scores being significantly higher. Pre- and post-attitude survey comparisons indicated a significant improvement in participant attitudes towards interprofessional teamwork. Seventy-eight percent of students reported the IPE activity enhanced their ability to “engage other health professions students in shared patient-centered care”. This IPE activity resulted in knowledge and attitude improvement related to patient safety.

Enhancing SLP Students' Perceptions of Older Persons and Collaborative Practice Through Geriatric Interprofessional Teamwork

Purpose To address the need for practice-ready geriatric health professionals, the Seniors Assisting in Geriatric Education (SAGE) program was developed and implemented by two partnering institutions. This study examines speech-language pathology students' perceptions of interprofessional (IP) teamwork and older persons following participation in the SAGE program. Specifically, students reflected on their IP competencies and attitudes toward older persons and overall perceptions of their SAGE experience and how this experience may impact their future practice. Method IP teams of three or four students ( n = 662) from eight disciplines and two partnering institutions participated in the SAGE program. Over three semesters, IP student teams visited a senior mentor's home, completing assignments aimed at growing skills in geriatric collaborative care. A mixed-method approach was used to examine 20 speech-language pathology students' perceptions post-SAGE. Students completed two questionnaires and provided written and verbal feedback, including retrospective pre–post comparisons. Results Moderate positive effect sizes were observed on retrospective reports examining perceptions of IP knowledge, attitudes, and skills. These reports were consistent with responses to additional questions examining values/ethics, roles and responsibilities, IP communication, and teamwork. Quantitative and qualitative measures reflected predominantly positive attitudes toward older persons, including an appreciation for older adults, increased knowledge and skills in geriatric care, and an interest in working with older persons in the future. Conclusions Speech-language pathology students participating on an IP geriatric team reported improved knowledge, attitudes, and skills in geriatric collaborative care. Additional study is needed to determine the impact of this experience on students' behaviors as future IP team members.
