The mission of the HPI Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education is to foster the development of innovative educational and practice models of team-based, collaborative care. The Center facilitates a "feedback loop" that informs educational content and process with the realities of practice to prepare the collaboration-ready workforce of tomorrow. The work of the Center represents a joint effort between the University of Pittsburgh Schools of the Health Sciences (Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, Dental Medicine, Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, and Public Health), our clinical partner, UPMC, the second largest integrated finance and delivery system in the US as well as other academic institutions, practice and training sites and patients and their families. Our primary UPMC collaborators include the Office of Advanced Practice Providers, the Donald D. Wolff, Jr. Center for Quality, Safety, and Innovation, and the UPMC/Pitt Center for Continuing Education in the Health Sciences.
