Interprofessional education (IPE) and collaborative practice are important drivers of healthcare transformation. Early learning activities designed to foster socialization may help students develop an interprofessional identity, built on an understanding of their unique contributions to interprofessional teams.
At the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UT Health San Antonio), an institution-wide initiative called Linking Interprofessional Networks for Collaboration was started to advance IPE and strengthen students' attitudes, knowledge, and skills related to interprofessional teamwork. An IPE orientation focused on socialization and meaningful student engagement was developed. The event included dinner, a socialization activity, a roles/responsibilities-focused activity, faculty member accounts of interprofessional collaboration, and a recorded patient interview with guided reflection. One hundred thirty-one students attended. The event was evaluated for student satisfaction and meaningfulness of pedagogical strategies to inform the design and implementation of future IPE activities.
Quantitative results were positive, with activities rated 3.5 or higher using a 4-point Likert scale. Faculty stories were rated the most meaningful component. Student comments indicated a desire to have more time dedicated to socialization activities and an increased opportunity to see their profession highlighted.
Outcomes informed the creation of a Common IPE Experience at UT Health San Antonio, which launched in 2020 for approximately 1000 students. The Common IPE Experience featured interprofessional socialization, wide-ranging representation of professions, case studies inspired by patient experiences, and faculty interpretations of case studies, all of which were derived from lessons learned in this IPE Report.
跨专业教育（IPE）与协作实践是医疗保健转型的重要推动因素。旨在促进社交的早期学习活动可能有助于学生建立跨专业身份认同，这种认同基于对他们在跨专业团队中独特贡献的理解。
在圣安东尼奥德克萨斯大学健康科学中心（UT Health San Antonio），一项名为“连接跨专业协作网络”的全校性倡议启动，以推进跨专业教育并强化学生与跨专业团队合作相关的态度、知识和技能。开发了一个以社交和有意义的学生参与为重点的跨专业教育入门课程。该活动包括晚餐、一项社交活动、一项聚焦角色/职责的活动、教师关于跨专业协作的讲述，以及一段带有引导性反思的患者访谈录像。131名学生参加了此次活动。对该活动进行了评估，以了解学生满意度以及教学策略的意义，为未来跨专业教育活动的设计和实施提供参考。
定量结果是积极的，各项活动在4分制李克特量表上的评分达到3.5或更高。教师的讲述被评为最有意义的部分。学生评论表明，他们希望有更多时间用于社交活动，并有更多机会看到自己的专业得到突出展示。
这些成果为UT Health San Antonio的“通用跨专业教育体验”的创建提供了参考，该体验于2020年启动，面向约1000名学生。“通用跨专业教育体验”包括跨专业社交、广泛的专业代表、受患者经历启发的案例研究以及教师对案例研究的解读，所有这些都源自本跨专业教育报告中的经验教训。
