Interprofessional collaborative practice is an essential component of healthcare delivery, to address the many health conditions that require a multidisciplinary approach to care. The formation of an interprofessional team that can work together utilizing interprofessional competencies is needed to perform the function seamlessly. Interprofessional education is essential to develop a “practice-ready workforce”. This study is aimed at designing and validating an interprofessional education module to integrate and improve interprofessional competencies among students of healthcare professions to care for children with autism. This quasi experimental study was done among 49 students from four different healthcare professions courses. The module was prepared using scientific methods and implemented among the selected healthcare professions students. Data collection was conducted using questionnaires and an observation checklist. Using the mean, frequency and percentage, and t-test, data were analysed. There was a significantly noticeable increase in the knowledge (pre-test mean 9.43 ± 2.92; post-test mean 12.27 ± 2.98) and competency (pre-test mean 76.98 ± 7.55; post-test mean 91.88 ± 5.31) scores with a moderately positive correlation between knowledge and competencies (p ≥ 0.05). The competency observation also showed an increase in the level of competency attained by the students. The study also aligned with the promotion of Sustainable Developmental Goals 3 “good health and well-being”, 4 “quality education” and 17 “partnerships for the goals”. The preparation and application of the module is essential to augment the interprofessional competencies of students. The study showed that the prepared module on interprofessional care for children with autism was successful in improving the interprofessional competencies of the healthcare professions students.

With an ever worsening shortage of healthcare workers, there has been a global shift towards strengthening of interprofessional education (IPE). IPE has existed as a powerful tool in developed countries, but in developing countries like India, it is still in its infancy. Several models of interprofessional education exist, yet India lags behind in implementing these models in academic curricula. Rudimentary curriculum, inefficient healthcare system, and maldistribution of health professionals are some of the potential barriers. A complete overhaul of the healthcare system along with progressive strategies of incorporation of IPE needs to be debated, and associated limitations need to be addressed. Adequate institutional support, well-constructed protocols, infrastructural revamp, and change of workplace culture are vital for IPE to succeed and be sustainable. This chapter provides an overview of IPE and collaborative practice in Indian settings and presents an account of an Indian institution utilizing IPP approach and highlights potential challenges in incorporating IPE in the academic curriculum.
