Abstract:
Interprofessional education (IPE) refers to students from two or more professions learn about, from and with each other to enable effective collaboration, enhance medical quality, and improve health outcomes. IPE is considered as a crucial educational model in contemporary clinical medical education. Taking the current state of IPE at renowned medical schools in China as an example, this article compares and summarizes the practice modes and achievements of IPE, such as improvement in team collaboration, role recognition, and communication skills, in well-known medical colleges in China and worldwide. From the aspects of policy support, teacher training, and student needs, this article also elucidates the driving forces and challenges faced by IPE development in China at the present stage. As an important topic in medical education in China, IPE should critically draw on advanced international experiences while considering the specific conditions of China to develop targeted courses, in order to provide robust support and drive the high-quality development of clinical medical education in China.
