IPE Guidance
Interprofessional Education (IPE) approaches are essential! Too often, specialists work in isolation, leading to uncoordinated treatment plans for children. This lack of collaboration can result in suboptimal care or even conflicting treatments
Coordination of IPE is needed!
Interprofessional Practice (IPP) provides a framework that enhances collaboration and improves outcomes.
