Presenting at CAB 2025:
In the work setting, health care professionals’ appearance has traditionally been conservative, but recently conservative appearance has been tested by the desire for personal expression. Student perceptions regarding what is considered professional vary and first impressions of the healthcare team and patients may be impacted.
Discover how innovative interprofessional education (IPE) activities enhance pharmacy students' competencies, confidence, and team behavior. This session explores online and in-person formats, collaborative design with nurse practitioners and physician assistants, and evaluation outcomes using ICCAS and C-ICE© instruments, offering practical strategies for advancing interprofessional collaboration in healthcare education.
