Interprofessional Education Taskforce

Purpose

The purpose for this taskforce is to:

  1. Identify areas where interprofessional educational sessions/courses can incorporated across the Division of Health Sciences.
  2. Create learning opportunities for health professions students.
  3. Measure outcomes of all curricular endeavors.

In the fall of 2020, the IPE Taskforce identified two areas of focus: Interprofessional Telehealth and Interprofessional Ethics across the Health Professions. Given the increase use of Telehealth to meet the healthcare needs of rural Eastern North Carolina especially given the COVID-19 Pandemic, the IPE Taskforce developed three modules on telehealth:

  1. Defining Telehealth for IPE Programs
  2. Implementing Telehealth with Culturally Diverse Patients
  3. Ethical and Legal Issues regarding Telehealth

These modules will be piloted in 2021 with interprofessional learners from across the Division of Health Sciences.
