Abstract

In this study, we report the effectiveness of an interprofessional patient safety education in impacting student knowledge, attitudes and self-confidence around interprofessional communication. Thirty third-year students took part in a six weeks education that included a 90 minutes lecture and group discussion. Self-administered questionnaire were used for examining knowledge, attitudes, self-confidence and interviewed about team communication. There was no change in the knowledge(p=>0.05) but the attitude and self-confidence improved significantly after the education(p=<0.05). Students also noted that the importance of collaboration with other occupational groups. The first implementation of the interprofessional patient safety education had a positive effect on student attitudes, self-confidence and interprofessional teamwork.

다학제적 교육은 여러 보건의료 관련 학과의 학생들에게 서로의 학문과 함께 서로의 직종에 관해 배울 수 있는 기회를 제공하며, 학생들의 졸업 후 관련 업무를 할 때 요구되는 협력 기술을 증진하고 개발할 수 있다. 보건의료 관련 학과 3학년 학생 가운데 연구 참여에 동의한 30명을 대상으로 매주 90분간의 강의와 그룹 토론을 포함하여 6 주간의 교육을 실시하였다. 교육 시작 전과 종료한 시점에서 환자안전에 대한 지식, 태도, 수행자신감을 평가하였으며, 타 학과에 대한 이해도 및 팀 협력에 대한 인터뷰를 시행하였다. 6주간의 다학제 간 환자안전 교육 프로그램과 관련하여 지식에는 변화가 없었지만 (p=>0.05), 태도와 자신감이 크게 향상되었고 (p=<0.05), 타 학과에 대한 이해와 다른 전문 직업과의 협력의 중요성을 깨달았음을 나타냈다. 국내에서 처음 실시한 다학제 간 환자 안전 교육은 학생들의 태도, 자신감 및 타 전문직업인 간의 팀워크에 긍정적인 영향을 나타냈다.
