Webinar: An Actionable Tool for the Interprofessional Team to Improve the Patient Experience
The Net Promoter System, used in many industries to gain customer loyalty and grow business, is also in use at UnitedHealth Group where the Center for Clinician Advancement (CFCA) implements learning, development and collaborative efforts to encourage interprofessional collaborative practice team development that improves quality of care for health care consumers. UnitedHealth Group uses the Net Promoter System (NPS) enterprise wide to improve the health care consumer experience.
Editorial: Interprofessional Education in the Age of Risk and Innovation
In July 2018, over 400 health professionals gathered in Minneapolis, MN to attend the Nexus Summit, “Creating Results: Interprofessional Vision to Action.” In her plenary address, Barbara Brandt, Director of the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education, spoke about the seismic shifts occurring in health care and health professions education and the importance of asking the right questions. This editorial provides a synopsis of Brandt’s address and raises questions for nurse educators.
Compliance Paperwork Across Disciplines
Given each professional school in healthcare has their own compliance requirements for their students, how have institutions been managing compliance when students from one school (e.g. nursing or pharmacy) participate in an IPE activity at another (e.g. medicine or social work). Has anyone been able to standardize compliance requirements for interprofessional activities/clinicals?

VIDEO: A National Academies of Medicine - National Center Joint Workshop
On November 13-14, the National Academies of Medicine Global Forum on Innovation in Health Professions Education and the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education jointly hosted a 1.5 day public meeting to explore strategies for bridging health professions practice and education (the Nexus) in ways that promote innovation in the clinical environment.
Generating the Data for Analyzing the Effects of Interprofessional Teams for Improving Triple Aim Outcomes
In this chapter we describe the creation of a data repository, the National Center Data Repository (NCDR) and a national network of performance sites generating that data, the National Innovation Network (NIN) for the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education (hereafter the National Center). We describe the raison d’être, characteristics, and ecosystem of the NIN-NCDR.
Advancing Health Professions Education Research by Creating a Network of Networks
Producing the best evidence to show educational outcomes, such as competency achievement and credentialing effectiveness, across the health professions education continuum will require large multisite research projects and longitudinal studies. Current limitations that must be overcome to reach this goal include the prevalence of single-institution study designs, assessments of a single curricular component, and cross-sectional study designs that provide only a snapshot in time of a program or initiative rather than a longitudinal perspective.
Practical Guides: Moving Theory into Effective Action
Has anyone downloaded these guides and could tell us how many pages are in each? Also, can we print copies without permission?
Thanks!
