Providing opportunities for Interprofessional Education (IPE) is a requirement of educational programs across multiple health professions, including Speech-Language Pathology (SLP), Occupational Therapy (OT), and Physical Therapy (PT). The purpose of this study was to measure each disciplines’ perceptions of IPE and application of IPE to a clinical case following a simulated interdisciplinary case evaluation experience. Participants included 22 OT and 45 PT graduate students from UW-La Crosse and 27 SLP graduate students from UW-Eau Claire and Viterbo University. Data included a pre-event survey gauging their understanding of a left cerebrovascular accident (CVA) case through open-ended questions and Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) scoring, and a post-event survey that included open-ended case responses, OASIS scoring, and a self-rating of their IPE skills using the Interprofessional Collaborative Competencies Attainment Survey (ICCAS). Quantitative and qualitative data about changes to student content knowledge and IPE knowledge and application will be presented.
