TL;DR
The infusion of simulation and interprofessional education into Michener's applied health curricula resulted in a significant improvement in clinical preparedness, bridges the gap previously separating didactic education and clinical practice.
Abstract
The infusion of simulation and interprofessional education into Michener's applied health curricula resulted in a significant improvement in clinical preparedness. The Michener NCM bridged the gap previously separating didactic education and clinical practice, transitioning applied health students from trained technicians to more complete health care professionals.
