This paper presents final results from a 15-month project which evaluated the effectiveness of interprofessional education (IPE) for first and second year medical, nursing and dental students on a community-based placement. The paper initially discusses the current issues within the IPE literature. It goes on to provide background information of this placement. In presenting the project's methodology, the paper describes the use of a 'process-based' approach which tracked the education and social processes connected to IPE. Such an approach has helped overcome some of the problems of using before-and-after designs. Findings from this study are offered in relation to the perspectives of the three participant groups in the placement: students, tutors and service users/carers. The paper goes on to discuss these findings and to draw conclusions for community-based IPE.
本文展示了一个为期15个月项目的最终结果,该项目评估了针对医学、护理和牙科专业大一和大二学生在社区实习中的跨专业教育(IPE)的有效性。本文首先讨论了IPE文献中的当前问题。接着提供了此次实习的背景信息。在介绍该项目的方法时,本文描述了使用一种“基于过程”的方法,该方法跟踪了与IPE相关的教育和社会过程。这种方法有助于克服使用前后设计所存在的一些问题。本研究的结果是从实习中三个参与群体的角度给出的:学生、导师以及服务使用者/照顾者。本文接着讨论这些结果,并为基于社区的IPE得出结论。
