This study was created by a health sciences student and provided to other health sciences students with inputs from various faculty members. The survey assessed the knowledge students have of the education, licensure, and clinical responisbilities of the 9 health professions represented at Creighton University. Subjective questions elucidate the preferences of students for the setting of interprofessional education.

This presentation introduces the Professional Humility Scale, highlighting its development and validation through expert feedback and construct testing with healthcare professionals. Attendees will explore the scale's role in promoting interprofessional collaboration and ethical practice, alongside its potential applications in enhancing teamwork, patient care, and interprofessional education in diverse healthcare contexts.

This concept analysis defines transnational healthcare as the practice of individuals seeking healthcare from their country of origin while living abroad. Using Walker and Avant’s framework, researchers reviewed literature to outline attributes, case examples, and implications. A clear definition aids in addressing health disparities and promoting interprofessional collaboration for migrant healthcare.

This study demonstrates that interprofessional collaboration enhances patient outcomes in critical care. Structured interprofessional practices involving broad based education, delineation of roles and responsibilities, teamwork, and shared decision-making frameworks improve safety and alignment with patient goals, reducing complications, improving efficiency, and reducing expenditures. This approach offers scalable benefits for advancing holistic, patient-centered care across healthcare systems.
