Yakima Valley Interprofessional Practice & Education Collaborative
The Yakima Valley Interprofessional Practice & Education Collaborative (YVIPEC) is a unique collaborative built among multiple universities and health professions training programs.
The participating institutions and programs in the YVIPEC are:
Guest Editorial: The US National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education Measurement and Assessment Collection
Barbara Brandt and Connie Schmitz published a guest editorial in the Journal of Interprofessional Care in 2017, outlining the approach to and rationale for the redesign of the National Center's measurement instrument collection on NexusIPE.org.
From the Introduction:
Indiana University Bloomington Navigator Program
Indiana University Bloomington senior nursing and second year medical students work with the Indiana University Health Bloomington Transitional Care Nurse manager to conduct home visits to patients discharged from acute care who are high risk for readmission.
Rush University: Implementing the Ambulatory Integration of the Medical and Social (AIMS) Model
This project provides Rush University Medical Center interprofessional providers, residents, and students an opportunity to work collaboratively to best meet the needs of their patients. At partner clinics, any member on the care team can place referrals to the Rush Health and Aging Department (RHA) for social work follow-up if they identify their patient (18+, public or private payer) has a psychosocial need or is facing barriers to following their health care plan. The social worker provides wrap-around supports that engage various interprofessional healthcare and service providers in ensuring a patient’s range of biopsychosocial needs are addressed. This collaboration will reinforce the paradigm shift within primary care of treating a patient holistically, and the inclusion of social work students and medical residents in this project is significant because it exposes them to important practices and competencies in integrating primary care with care management and psychosocial supports.
