Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 June 2023
Abstract
Background: Interprofessional collaboration is at the center of much of our work as Neurologists, yet often Medical Education inadequately prepares students for the complexities of interdisciplinary practice. Authentic, meaningful Interprofessional Education (IPE) requires consideration in involement of all individuals involved in interprofessional health care (IPHC) (Holbrook, 2013). Methods: We have collected authentic stories of acute stroke care through interviews with patients and other health care professionals on the acute stroke care team. Drawing on these narratives, we have crafted a multimedia story combining film, photography, and art. Results: This case will be integrated into Western University’s Undergraduate Medical Education curriculum but is intended to be a valuable tool for teaching IPE competencies in all IPE contexts. All media will be available thorugh Western Libaries open access Health Education Media Library. Main learning outcomes include improved recognition of HCP roles and the vital and diverse contributions of each team member. Conclusions: Drawing on the experiences of real stroke patients, families, and all other HCPs, we have crafted a rich educational case portraying the complexity of IPHC that will allow learners to reflect on the complex roles of health professoinals in a successful interprofessional team.
