Abstract

Background: There has been an explosion of knowledge and information in all health professions, together with increased specialization. While an increased workload and interaction between disciplines and professions may be expected within this complex environment, fewer and more superficial relations have been established. The university system known as ‘multiversity’ promises interprofessional interaction as a competence for medical students. This article presents the preclinical program called interprofessional colloboration and communication designed and applied by us, together with its early outcomes. The basic and long-term goal of the program is to create cultural change in learning and practice in the university context.
Methods: The course was designed with a transformative approach. Qualitative data obtained from the Professional Identity Scale and the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale and from portfolios were used within a pretest-postest experimental design to assess student and program success/satisfaction.
Results: This study was conducted among first-year medical students (n = 43) participating in a two-week “Interprofessional Colloboration and Communication” elective course. Educational methods involving active participation on the part of students, such as clinical observations, case studies, brainstorming, and self-assessment. Research shows a significant difference between total Professional Identity Scale pretest (27.02±3.09) and post-test (29.28±2.65) scores (t= -4.58, p= 0.00).and a significant different between pretest (70.88±10.1) and post-test (78.19±6.8) total RILS scores (p= 0.00). A change between pre- and post-program attitudes regarding internship and prejudices concerning health personnel and personal and professional experience was found.
Conclusions: At the end of the program, students’ professional identity perceptions increased, while we determined changes in pre-and post-program preconceptions regarding the internship period and health personnel, and in awareness concerning personal and professional life. Feedback concerning students’ clinical observations was shared with the hospital administration and represented a trigger for culture change.

Abstract

Amaç: Karmaşık sağlık hizmeti ortamında iş yükü ile birlikte disiplinlerin ve mesleklerin birbirleri ile etkileşiminin artması beklenirken daha az ve yüzeysel ilişkiler kurulduğu görülmektedir. ‘Çok-çeşitlilik' gösteren üniversite sistemi tıp öğrencileri için mesleklerarası etkileşimi bir yetkinlik olarak tanımlamaktadır. Bu çalışma tasarladığımız klinik öncesi mesleklerarası iletişim ve işbirliği programının uygulanması ve erken sonuçlarını sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Programın temel ve uzak hedefi üniversite bağlamında öğrenme ve uygulamada kültürel değişim yaratmaktır.


 Gereç ve Yöntem: Kurs, dönüştürücü bir yaklaşımla tasarlanmıştır. Öğrenci ve program başarı/memnuniyetini değerlendirmeye yönelik öntest- sontest deneysel tasarım içerisinde Mesleki Kimlik Ölçeği ve Mesleklerarası Öğrenmeye Yönelik Hazır Bulunuşluk ölçekleri ile portfolyodan elde edilen niteliksel veriler kullanılmıştır.


Bulgular: Bu çalışma 2017–2018 öğretim yılında Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi programında iki haftalık ‘Mesleklerarası İletişim ve Etkileşim’ seçmeli kursuna katılan 43 birinci sınıf öğrencisi ile yürütülmüştür. Programda klinik gözlemler, vaka çalışmaları, beyin fırtınası, özdeğerlendirme gibi öğrencilerin aktif katılımını gerektiren yöntemlere yer verilmiştir. Çalışmada Mesleki Kimlik Ölçeği öntest (27.02 ± 3.09)-sontest (29.28 ± 2.65) puanları (t = -4.58, p = 0.00) ile; RILS ön test (70,88 ± 10,1) -sontest (78,19 ± 6,8) puanları arasında (p = 0,00) anlamlı fark saptanmıştır. Öğrencilerin sağlık personeline yönelik program öncesi ve sonrası tutumları ile kişisel ve mesleki deneyime ilişkin önyargılar arasında değişiklik bulunmuştur.


Sonuç: Mesleklerarası İletişim ve Etkileşim seçmeli programı sonunda öğrencilerin mesleki kimlik algısının yükseldiği, program öncesi ve sonrası intörnlük dönemi ve sağlık personeli ile ilgili önyargılarında, kişisel ve mesleki yaşantıya ilişkin farkındalıklarında değişim olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Öğrencilerin klinik gözlemlerine ilişkin geribildirimler eğitim ve hastane yönetim ile paylaşılmış, kültür değişimi için bir başlatıcı olmuştur.
