Last week, Canisius PA students joined 965 students from 15 health professions in 132 small discussion groups to explore the importance of knowing the roles of different healthcare providers, engaging in effective teamwork and communication, and the beneficial outcomes of collaborative healthcare practice.
This would not have been possible without the dedication of the faculty facilitators to this important IPE initiative, including several from the PA department. This event has a particular focus on the social determinants of health and how to better care for patients in the ZIP codes near the Canisius campus.
