Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)
The fourth international Collaboration Across Borders conference (CAB IV) was held in Vancouver BC, Canada on June 12‐14, 2013.

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)
My career in nursing began more than three decades ago. Healthcare education during that time was delivered in the familiar “silo” style.

A new and exciting course on TeamSTEPPS was introduced at Jefferson last Spring. JCIPE has embraced the concept of TeamSTEPPS, a program developed by the Department of Defense and now sponsored by AHRQ to train healthcare professionals to work together effectively as a team to ensure patient safety. The following team skills are emphasized: leadership, situational awareness, team support and communication skills. To introduce this to the campus JCIPE sponsored a pilot project in May, 2013 to train a cadre of students in the techniques of TeamSTEPPS.

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)
Feelings of frustration, loss, and exhaustion are common among healthcare workers. Students placed among new experiences and in a dependent learning role are not shielded from these emotions but often experience them differently from other members of the healthcare team.

If instrumentation is not sterilized appropriately, the patient’s safety is possibly put at risk from the potential of surgical site infections. No specific literature data directly correlates immediate use sterilization with surgical site infection. …
