Increasing Interprofessional Collaboration (IPC) in Clinical Nursing & Health Professions Education

Grant Summary

This project will help establish geriatric team care in community-based settings and inform the development of interprofessional curricula in nursing and other health professional schools. Up to 25 nursing school-led, community-based programs will be selected and awarded grants to develop interprofessional courses and activities while cultivating collaborations among health professions, educational, and community partners. The project will utilize the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education's research, experience, and resources and will build on current and previous work supported by the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), as well as a consortium of funders (The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, The Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation). With grant support from The John A. Hartford Foundation, this project will provide awards that focus on care for older people.
