| Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: Interprofessional collaborative practice is linked to decreased medical errors Previously, we published that large-scale in-person simulations can teach Interprofessional teamwork skills To prove that virtual instruction in these skills produces similar learning outcomes, we compared virtual and In-person learning outcomes from delivery of a workshop based on TeamSTEPPS® METHODS• Students were assigned by their school faculty and attendance was mandatory After completing an online learning module on TeamSTEPPS® techniques, pre-clinical students (n = 1,158) from 10 professions practiced these skills in two virtual interprofessional simulations lasting 75 minutes including debriefings Pre-post surveys were administered to learners We compared findings with in-person results previously reported from simulations using the same cases RESULTS• Performance on multiple choice questions and self-reported teamwork ability Improved pre- to post-simulation Participants recommended the simulation be required for subsequent learners (85 6%) and were satisfied with the relevance to their area of study (8754%) Qualitative comments highlighted the benefits of the teamwork and interprofessional components of the simulation DISCUSSION: Outcomes of virtual program delivery were similar to those of in-person delivery Virtual simulation successfully enabled students to apply skills Inan interprofessional environment to improve teamwork and communication skills These results enable us to offer this course virtually to distance learning students currently. |
