2. Interprofessional Education: Why now?
In 2001, IOM’s Committee on Quality of Health Care in America concluded that:
“Health care professionals working in interprofessional teams can best communicate and address complex and challenging needs.” 1

3. Interprofessional Educaton: Why now?
The Mayo Clinic (Rochester, Minn.) reports nearly 1 in 2 (45.8%) of the nation's doctors already suffer a symptom of burnout. 
Team-oriented approaches could help ease the pressure:
It used to be all about the clinician caring for the patient. Now it needs to be the clinician, nurse, care coordinator and others. When you start expanding the numbers of types of people who are caring for a patient, that helps a doctor and patient a lot.

10. IPTC: What is the visit approach?
Teams
Students join forces BEFORE the visit.
Review the chart TOGETHER.
This allows you a chance to get to know each other AND the patient.
Talk about what you want to know/do in the room.
Talk about how to approach the patient encounter as a team.

11. IPTC: What is the visit approach?
Teams
Students see the patients AS a TEAM.
Students report back to the attending AFTER the visit AS a TEAM.
Often the medical student presents the patient, but ALL students have a voice.
The medical student is responsible for documenting the patient visit, but the TEAM develops the assessment and plan.

12. IPTC: What is the visit approach?
Roles
We encourage you to define your roles by what the patient needs today.
Start with your professional training and scope of practice.
Next, allow yourself to participate in new ways.
Last, always come back to what YOU can do for the patient today.

13. * We need to revise this to include PT and Law.

14. IPTC: Looking back as looking forward
Reflect on your performance individually and as a team.
Incorporate your reflections into your next patient encounter.
Debrief! Share your anxieties, frustrations, and questions with your team and your faculty.
Always, come back full circle to the patient’s needs and let that guide you.
