Piedmont Healthcare is moving towards Joint Accreditation – accreditation that allows us to accredit educational activities for physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and other members of the healthcare team. This will help streamline the application and approval process for those activities geared to two or more professions.
Interprofessional Education (IPCE) is "education for the team, by the team." It features:
- Education for two or more professions as documented by planning committee membership and participants in activity (can be any two professions, not just physicians and nurses).
- Team focused (professional performance gap of the team)
- Active learning (teams learn from, with, and about one another)
- Strategies to sustain change and overcome barriers are addressed
