TPS-grupper i praksis (Tverrprofesjonell samarbeidslæring i praksisstudier) Delprosjekt 1b i OPERASJON BACHELORPRAKSIS, FHS
I denne rapporten presenteres modeller for tverrprofesjonell praksis-læring som
benyttes både i primærhelsetjenester (TVEPS) og i spesialisthelsetjenesten (TPS i
sykehuspraksis). I tillegg presenteres en mal for informasjonsskriv til ledere og
veiledere i helseforetak og kommuner, der det oppfordres til ĂĄ legge til rette for
tverrprofesjonelt studentsamarbeid nĂĄr studenter fra flere profesjonsutdanninger har
samtidig praksis i samme institusjon. Utvikling av modellene som beskrives har
pĂĄgĂĄtt gjennom flere ĂĄr. Som del av prosjekt Operasjon Bachelorpraksis er modellene
presentert samlet og er prøvd ut på nye praksis-arenaer og på flere HVL-campus.
Modeller og mal for informasjonsskriv er også presentert i «Ressursemne for TPS
i teori og praksis, opprettet i læringsplattformen Canvas (se rapport fra TPSgruppens oppdrag fra punktene 1 og 3)
Interprofessional education as a contributor to professional and interprofessional identities
According to the World Health Organization interprofessional education (IPE) is a necessary step in preparing a collaborative practice-ready health work force. However, the processes of developing professional identity within interprofessional education programs have not been fully explored and require a deeper understanding. Participation in interprofessional education groups may influence the development of professional identity including increased awareness of one’s own profession-specific competence as well as socialization into a professional role. Interprofessional education is a dynamic social process related to students’ memberships in IPE-groups. We conducted focus groups with representatives from students in seven different professional education programs involved in interprofessional education during all three years of their educational programs. We used the principles of systematic text condensation as an analytical frame. This article is a contribution toward grasping how IPE can contribute to both professional and interprofessional identity. Group collaboration in interprofessional education enabled students to identify with their profession as well as creating a safe place to gain insight into other professions’ competencies. Moreover, students could obtain knowledge about being a professional participant and could enrich their professional identity, as they were involved with students from other professions. IPE-groups strengthened professional identity rather than threatened it

Evidence of validity for the Norwegian version of the interprofessional collaborative competency attainment survey (ICCAS)
This was a validation study of the Norwegian version of The Interprofessional Collaborative Competency Attainment Survey (ICCAS). ICCAS consists of 20 retrospective pre- and post-questions, where respondents rate their agreement with regard to self-assessed competencies after participating in interprofessional education courses. It has been validated across various settings. The questionnaire was translated using the back-translation technique. We investigated evidence of validity regarding content, response process, and internal structure. Data were obtained from health and social care students (n = 1440, response rate 42.8%) participating in 12 different interprofessional courses in seven education institutions in Norway using a cross-sectional design. Exploratory factor analysis indicated one retracted factor for pre-scores and one retracted factor for post-scores. High McDonald’s omega values indicated good internal consistency. Item deletion did not improve the scale’s overall consistency on pre- or post-scores. We observed higher mean post-scores than pre-scores with moderate-to-large effect sizes, indicating a positive change in self-assessed interprofessional capabilities after training. Our findings indicate that the Norwegian version of ICCAS is a valid tool that may be implemented across a wide range of interprofessional education courses. Finally, our findings support earlier recommendations that ICCAS should be analyzed at an overall level to address change in interprofessional capabilities.publishedVersio
