Interprofessional Education: • “…occurs when two or more professions learn with, from and about each other to improve collaboration and the quality of care…and includes learning in academic and work-based settings before and after qualification, adopting and inclusive view of professional.” --- UK Center for Advancement of Interprofessional Education, CAIPE, 2006
What is NaHSSA? Established in January of 2005, is the first national interprofessional student association in the world! Established to act as a unifying body to represent and advocate for interprofessional change A network of local university and college-based chapters and students that promote interprofessional education (IPE) and collaborative practice Enables students to advocate for and learn about IPE through professional development and social networking opportunities Currently 20 university-based chapters across Canada Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X77tGTHQZOY
What is MaHSSA? • Established in January of 2007, we are comprised of 12 health sciences programs and faculties at the University of Manitoba • We are committed to the promotion of communication and collaboration early in training and throughout lifelong learning • Serve as the umbrella organization to house student-led IPE initiatives at the University of Manitoba
Why is the Manitoba chapter important? SOLUTION….MaHSSA • An body needed to promote and advocate for IPE in the province of Manitoba • An umbrella organization to house IPE initiatives and programs • A body to provide professional development and social networking opportunities for students in the health sciences • A body that strives to promote an environment of trust, acceptance and understanding of health disciplines’ training, scope and expertise with an emphasis on the importance of patient-centered care, patient safety and quality improvement FACTS: • Interprofessional Education (IPE) should begin in pre-professional years • It is known that IPE shapes collaborative practice and improves quality of care • Separate curricula at the U of M emphasized a team-based approach, however, minimal contact between the programs • IPE eqiups students with the tools necessary to provide team-based care within healthcare settings
Our Mission • To act as the unifying body that enhances holistic care by promoting interprofessional education and facilitating collaboration between the health services students of Manitoba.
Our Vision • To achieve a standard of interprofessional practice by providing interprofessional opportunities across curricula and human service initiatives.
