1. The Leicester Model of patient-centred practice-based IPE –– Liz Anderson and Neena Lakhani

The Leicester model places students to learn alongside the actual clinical team and is based in practice. This is patient-centred work and requires ethical care and a great deal of organisation and we will share recent successes. In the workshop you will learn more about how to replicate the model and have time to design work on areas of your choice and including mental health and children.

1. An interprofessional Schwartz Round – Noelle Robertson and Laura Golding will run a Round – title “A colleague I will never forget”

Schwartz Rounds provide a structured, facilitated and emotionally contained space for healthcare staff and learners to come together to discuss the emotional aspects of their work and support their capacity to deliver compassionate care. The Rounds help to normalise the strong emotions that arise from working in healthcare and enable staff and students to have greater insight, compassion for and appreciation of the roles and work of other healthcare staff.  Licensed by the Point of Care Foundation, Schwartz Rounds are running in over 260 organisations in the UK and Ireland – in NHS Trusts, ICSs, social care, universities and hospices.

1. Patient Involvement in IPE– Led by the Patient and Carer Group and Jenny Ford

In a recent scoping review, only 13 papers were identified that had involved patients or carers and focussed on interprofessional learning . Of these papers only 9 were for undergraduate curriculum the remainder being with patients for professional teams to learn how to improve practice. The main goal of interprofessional education (IPE), is to improve services and the quality of care for patients, their families and communities. In this workshop you will consider what patients and carers feel about IPE and how to involve them.
