Interprofessional Education (IPE)
Health professionals and students learning with, from and about one another to improve collaboration and the quality of patient care
World Health Organization (WHO, 1988)
“Multiprofessional education is not an end in itself but a means of ensuring that different types of health personnel can work together to meet the health needs of the people”
What it should be….…Interactive…
…not this
IPEC- Interprofessional Education Collaborative (2009)
First ‘Supporting Organization’
Attributes of Graduates of the Schools and Colleges of Optometry (revised 2011)
Graduates are expected to have:
the ability to appropriately use all resources, including the use of ancillary personnel, intra- and interprofessional collaboration, co-management and referral, in ensuring the best quality of patient care;
Have a commitment to work as an integral member of the larger interprofessional health care team to improve patient care outcomes;

REPRESENTATIVES FROM 11 INSTITUTIONS PARTICIPATED IN AN IPEC SPONSORED
WORKSHOP• AZCOPT• IUSO• MCO• MCPHS• NECO• NOVA• PUCO• RSO• UABSO• UMSL• WUCO
Trends• Those institutions housed in Universities with other
healthcare degree programs were more likely to offer formal IPE courses
• Those institutions not housed in Universities with other healthcare degree programs were more likely to offer patient care oriented interprofessional activities
Trends (cont’d)
• Most optometric faculty involvement is on a volunteer basis
• Those reporting no barriers to IPE did not report a robust IPE/IPP offering
• Not a direct correlation between those attending an IPEC conference and the quantity and variety of IPE/IPP offerings
