Description
This course introduces the foundations of interprofessional collaborative practice. Students will engage in self-directed learning with other disciplines through the exploration of values and ethics for interprofessional practice, roles and responsibilities of health care providers, interprofessional communication strategies, and the development of high functioning teams in health care.  This course is designed to provide a framework for deliberately working together with other health professionals to maintain a climate of mutual respect and shared values in today’s complex health care environment, with the common goal of improving patient outcomes.
