Interprofessional Competence Development Through Online Palliative Care Education and Virtual Interprofessional Simulation (VISion) (GP754)

Interprofessional (IP) collaboration and quality palliative care (PC) are global priorities, requiring baseline competence of generalist health care professionals (HCPs). PC requires a collaborative team approach, thus is an exemplary model for teaching IP roles and teamwork. Many HCP training programs are now online, offering flexibility and self-paced instruction but leaving students craving personal connections. Simulations with varied IP student backgrounds assist in fostering these connections while promoting collaboration and team-based competency development.
