Patient Satisfaction with the Interprofessional Teaching Clinic
Paper survey for assessing patient satisfaction with the interprofessional outpatient experience. Patients are asked to complete 14 questions, 13 quantitative and 1 qualitative. 11 items are scored via a 5-point Likert scale. 2 items are Yes/No. Surveys were anonymous, and offered at the end of a clinical encounter.

Physical Space for IPE
If your IPE office or group is lucky enough to have a dedicated space just for IPE could you please tell us what really works in that space?
Also what you wish you had now that you don't? We are creating a plan for the future of our IPE and would like ideas.
Call for papers: Families, Systems and Health
Families, Systems & Health will devote an upcoming issue to teamwork in health care. The journal aims to foster new knowledge relevant to “a systemic approach to healthcare that integrates mind and body; individual and family; and communities, clinicians, and health systems while considering cost-effectiveness and distributive justice.” Relevant submissions could address training of health care teams, team leadership models, team science, and the impact of teamwork on patient, staff, health care quality, equity and financial outcomes.
Looking ahead: what you can expect from the National Center this year
With the start of a new year, I’ve been both reflecting on what the National Center has accomplished and looking toward the future. I want to invite you to review the update I recently published in the Journal of Interprofessional Care, where I shared our thinking about the need for a new Nexus of practice and education, our focus on large-scale systems transformation, the center’s research agenda, and an invitation to help us achieve our vision.
