- Abstract
Background: Integrating interprofessional concepts and competencies in the classroom teaches students to perform successfully in complex interprofessional care environments. There is little information regarding the effects of interprofessional collaboration in education utilizing faculty and students from other disciplines. Method: Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Survey (SCLS) scores and written responses were collected from 31 nursing students to explore nursing students' perceptions of an interprofessional collaboration in teaching between nursing and physical therapist (PT) educators. Results: Nursing students' SCLS scores were higher on days where PT educators participated in teaching students. Analysis of written responses revealed five themes: appreciation of an outside expert perspective, enhanced self-efficacy with patient mobility skills, opportunity for interprofessional collaboration, satisfaction with the learning experience, and conflicting information. Conclusion: Interprofessional collaboration in teaching resulted in high levels of satisfaction and self-confidence and provided an opportunity to work toward an aspect of core competency for interprofessional collaborative practice.
