INPRO
Session chair: Ingrid Aerts

Aligning interprofessional education and collaboration in practice (IPECP)- using promising regional experiences and international exchange for continual advancement in patient-centered care

INPRO is an international project, co-funded by the European Union, in which higher education institutions and rehabilitation centers work in partnership on aligning interprofessional collaboration. Or to state it more concrete: to further enable a smooth transfer from training in health and social professions to the actual work setting. We are keen to get Interprofessionalism in action!

Why do we do this?
The pressure on the European health care system is increasing considerably: more elderly people and patients
with chronic diseases in need of (rehabilitation) care, a diminishing work force and health care costs continuing
to rise. Several measures to counteract this are proposed, such as reduction of the length of stay in hospitals or
rehabilitation centers by improving interprofessional and person-centered collaboration between health and
social care professionals.
Even though there is a lot of attention for interprofessional education and collaborative practice (IPECP), the INPRO-consortium partners sense a gap between competence levels of future professionals and the levels actually needed in rehabilitation practice. Therefore, the transfer from tertiary education to practice concerning IPECP in rehabilitation is the central theme of the project.
By doing so, we ultimately aim to contribute to improving health and quality of life of patients.

How do we collaborate?
Regional bounds between higher education institutions (HEIs) and rehabilitation centers will be strengthened in order to align IPECP. On the one hand we plan to deliver a set of basic and advanced modules on functioning according to the WHO’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health and a set of tools to assess the effect of interprofessional skills training. On the other hand we will further develop promising approaches derived from HEIs and from a pilot student-run learning ward. These approaches will be described and tested in regional setting. After an evaluation these approaches will be adapted for use in other regions.
Students and lecturers will be meeting each other online (global classrooms) and – if possible- professionals working in the field will participate in visits to their colleagues working in rehabilitation centers. In this way, they will be facilitated to learn from each other and see how the alignment from education to the field is being done in the other participating regions.

What will we deliver?
We aim to deliver a range of freely available learning materials, from modules on IPECP theory to guidelines on how to set up and run a student-run interprofessional learning ward in a rehabilitation center or other health care settings. Once ready, these materials will published on this website. Educators may use these materials to be implemented in the core curricula in tertiary education and for lifelong learning in health and social care practice.

Observations:

1) IPE interventions require a lot of organizing yet so rewarding because it really helps students to apply their knowledge and get to know their one as well as other professions. Should be part of every degree programme for health professionals!

2) Differences working multi-disciplinary and interprofessionally in theory as well as in practices

3) Patient is in the center of all interprofessional activities!

One of the INPRO lecturers summarized:

“Interprofessional collaboration is not about a walk in the park, it is about a dive in the swimming pool with a good filled toolbox and coaches in the water!”
