十大网络彩票平台大全 the Center to Advance Interprofessional Education and Practice

的 Center to Advance Interprofessional Education and Practice (CAIEP) is UNE’s hub for interprofessional education (IPE) and collaborative practice.

Who We Are

Recognized as a national IPE leader, UNE is the only institution in New England that is part of the National Center for Interprofessional Education and Practice’s prestigious Innovation Network.

Our mission is to prepare students to work collaboratively, across disciplines, to achieve more successful outcomes as members of clinical and community teams.

Our work touches every health professions program at UNE and many of the arts, sciences, research, and humanities programs. We foster an inclusive environment where students, faculty, and community partners learn together to advance effective health practices and improve the quality of life for all people.

What is Interprofessional Education?

Interprofessional education takes place when students 从 two or more disciplines learn with, 从, and about each other to better understand different professions’ roles and expertise, improve communication, enhance teamwork, and advance future workforce skills.  

IPE began with health professions, with students 从 different programs being taught to work together as part of larger, interdisciplinary healthcare teams. This approach has proven to produce successful patient outcomes, and the model is now expanding so it can be applied to broader situations.

Collaborative practice is the professional application of IPE, with people 从 different backgrounds and with different areas of expertise working together to deliver a higher quality of service and care to achieve common goals.

Teamwork allows you to achieve more together than any one person could achieve alone.

Why UNE

I chose UNE because of the clinical track for my M.S.W. 的 courses were geared towards the field and the requirements to become licensed after graduation. UNE also provided the online atmosphere I needed, as I am a mother of four and my husband is in the military. 的 online atmosphere allowed me to continue my education no matter my location.

UNE provided the appropriate course work that allowed me to learn about social work, the different therapeutic models used within the field, and the best ways to apply these concepts and models to our practice. In addition, there were elective courses that grabbed my attention and covered different aspects of the field.

faculty was a major support for students and was always available for help and support.

Experiential Learning

I completed two internships while attending UNE. My experience with interprofessional education really came 从 my first internship and helped me learn a lot. I was able to work with multiple professions when it came to the care of our clients, and I felt it was imperative in covering every aspect of health the client needed cared for. 的 interprofessional videos provided by the school helped to gain different perspectives on a wide range of topics.

My most memorable field placement moment was having a client with a traumatic brain injury who forgot to make appointments and would go 从 depression and unchecked health to maintaining health and thriving. He went 从 15-minute sessions to 2-hour sessions.
