Little is known regarding attitudes of healthcare professional students towards team-based care in the Middle East. As modernization of health systems is rapidly occurring across the Gulf Cooperation Council countries, it is important for students to engage in interprofessional education (IPE) activities. The objective of this study was to assess pre-clinical students' attitudes towards interprofessional healthcare teams after completion of their first IPE activity. A previously validated questionnaire was distributed to 25 pharmacy and 17 nutrition students at Qatar University after participation in an IPE event. Questions related to quality of team-based care and physician centricity. Results showed high agreement regarding high quality care provided by teams yet students were unsure of the value of team-based care when considering required time for implementation. Results provide baseline data for future studies to assess student attitudes throughout the professional programs and give valuable insight for future IPE program design in the Middle East.
关于中东地区医护专业学生对团队式护理的态度,目前所知甚少。随着海湾合作委员会国家的卫生系统迅速现代化,让学生参与跨专业教育(IPE)活动非常重要。本研究的目的是评估临床前学生在完成首次IPE活动后对跨专业医护团队的态度。在参与一次IPE活动后,向卡塔尔大学的25名药学专业学生和17名营养学专业学生发放了一份先前经过验证的问卷。问题涉及团队式护理的质量和以医生为中心的程度。结果显示,学生们高度认同团队提供的高质量护理,但在考虑实施所需时间时,他们不确定团队式护理的价值。研究结果为未来评估整个专业课程中学生态度的研究提供了基线数据,并为中东地区未来的IPE项目设计提供了宝贵的见解。
