Criterion

Summary of Elements

▪ Include adult learning theories, frameworks, standards, and competencies to structure the development of Sim-IPE.

Conduct Sim-IPE based on a theoretical or a conceptual framework.

▪ Develop the design in consultation with experts and representatives of the targeted interprofessional learners. ▪ Incorporate authentic, challenging, reality-based activities /scenarios developed and reviewed by the professions involved in the simulation. ▪ Develop mutual goals among the professions involved in the experience. ▪ Determine that the simulation-based experience meaningfully involves all learners. ▪ Determine institutional and leadership commitment to Sim- IPE. ▪ Ensure adequate resources including financial support, simulation space, equipment, supplies, time, support for staff/simulationists, and a budget plan to ensure sustainability. ▪ Incorporate data collection instruments which demonstrate reliability and validity across the professions. ▪ Instruments to consider: Health Professional Collaboration Scale; Interprofessional Collaborative Competency Attainment Survey; InterProfessional Activity Classification Tool; Interprofessional Socialization and Valuing Scale; KidSim Team Performance Scale; Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS; Revised); Student Perceptions of Interprofessional Clinical-Education Re- vised Instrument; TeamSTEPPS Teamwork, Attitude Q; Team Readiness Assurance Test/Individual Readiness Assurance Test; Interprofessional Collaborator Assessment. ▪ Measure impact of Sim-IPE on learner’s understanding of team behavior and the Interprofessional education competencies. (IPEC competencies).

Utilize best practices in the design and development of Sim-

IPE. (Follow the HSSOBP TM Design and Prebriefing.)

Recognize and address potential barriers to Sim-IPE. (Follow the HSSOBP TM Prebriefing: Preparation and Briefing, Simulation Design, The Debriefing Process, and Professional Development.) Include an appropriate evaluation plan. (Follow the HSSOBP TM Evaluation of Learning and Performance.)
