What is the Interprofessional Educational Program?
The Interprofessional Educational program (IPE) within University of Utah Health equips health professions trainees with essential competencies that cross medical disciplines and prepares them to work as members of an interprofessional team – part of an overall transformation of care across the country.
In the College of Health (COH), IPE is embedded within athletic training, physical therapy, occupational therapy, recreational therapy, audiology, speech language pathology, and nutrition courses. Student care providers participate in educational experiences that require them to work as team members – collaborating, planning, coordinating, learning from one another to improve health outcomes.
