The 360 Degree Approach: Patient Forward App Development In The Healthcare Space, Rob Mruczek, Tori Styner

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)

The Jefferson Teamwork Observation Guide (JTOG) is a responsive, modern mobile application designed to bring this honesty to healthcare. The app helps to evaluate teamwork at a healthcare system from all possible angles, giving a true 360 degree view of the experience of all participants in a medical setting.

The best teams, just like the best …

Using Trauma Case-Based Learning To Inspire Interprofessional Readiness Among Future Health Professionals, Jeanne Felter Phd, Lpc, Stephen Didonato Phd, Lpc, Amy Baker Ms, Pa-C, Richard Hass Phd, Michelle D. Gorenberg Otd, Otr/L

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)

Background

It is well established in the literature that patient outcomes and quality of care are optimized when disciplines work together (Chonienne et al., 2010). Interprofessional practice (IPP) among health professionals is even more important when working with individuals exposed to trauma, which can result in disrupted physical, cognitive, and social development, and manifest in an array of physical and psychological symptoms (e.g. Felitti & Anda, 1998). Consequently, professionals across social service and healthcare systems may encounter and simultaneously serve trauma-affected individuals. However, healthcare and behavioral health systems are historically fragmented and frequently fail to provide the coordinated and integrated …

The curriculum includes 5 immersions, each with a specific life and care continuum focus to develop …

The purpose of this paper is to consider these healthcare changes and share a …
