Developing and implementing interprofessional learning in a Faculty of Health Professions.
Interprofessional education enables health professional students to learn together in order to work together. The Faculty of Health Professions at Dalhousie University has developed interprofessional learning within the core curriculum of eight educational programs. ⋯ Evaluation themes included the positive aspect of contact and discussion with students from other health professions, and the need to include medical students. The Faculty of Health Professions is planning to improve upon this first module, introduce other modules, and extend contact with other university faculties and community professionals.
