Abstract
Inter-professional learning (IPL) is a key component of health and social care education. The NHS plan (2000) outlined a vision for an NHS service designed around patient need; and encouraged professionals to work together to meet the needs of service users. While IPL programmes across the globe focus on the needs of service users and carers few directly engage multi-disciplinary groups of students with service users and carers. This presentation reports the results of an evaluation of an innovative approach to IPL at a large UK University that does just that. Year one students from eight disciplines listen to the live stories of service user/carers experiences of health and social care, to help them explore concepts of patient centred care and collaborative practice.
