Longitudinal Survey on the Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice

IPR Global is pleased to announce the publication of its COVID-19 study protocol entitled A longitudinal survey on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on interprofessional education and collaborative practice in the Journal of Interprofessional Care.  The article can be accessed at the journal website: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13561820.2020.1798901

As many countries are experiencing re-opening, the impact of the pandemic on healthcare has been unprecedented. It is widely accepted that healthcare education and practice, including interprofessional education and collaborative practice, has been and will continue to be affected in profound ways. However, the severity and extent of the impact is yet to be determined and is likely to vary internationally. This study is a first in its kind to systematically and globally capture the impact of COVID-19 on interprofessional education and collaborative practice (IPECP) which will allow to identify priorities for IPECP research and development in the years to come, as well as to inform future pandemic preparedness. The data collection is conducted on a quarterly basis for a period of 12 months to capture the rapidly evolving nature of the pandemic and its impact on IPECP. 

IPR Global invites faculty/educators, students, administration, providers, and policy makers to join us in taking this anonymous longitudinal COVID-19 IPECP impact survey at:
