The Interprofessional Skill Lab in the Simulation Centre: An Experience of Communication between the medical-nursing team and family members

During daily clinical practice, health professionals spend most of their time interacting with each other. Nevertheless, at university they are educated and trained separately and rarely have the opportunity to learn how to work as a team. In our center of simulation we organized an interdisciplinary education session with nursing and medical students to improve their interprofessional team behaviours and competences. The students became more aware of the four domains of interprofessional competence (values/ethics, role and responsibility, interprofessional communication, teams and teamwork) and about the need to learn how to integrate with each other to work in synergy as an interprofessional team to meet people’s healthcare needs, which are becoming increasingly complex.

Center of Simulation, Interprofessional competence, behaviours, skills, teamwork, added value.
