TL;DR
The Sim-IPE has better prepared the medical and nursing students in communicating with one another in providing safe care for deteriorating patient and has improved their perception towards interprofessional learning.
Abstract
The Sim-IPE has better prepared the medical and nursing students in communicating with one another in providing safe care for deteriorating patient. In addition, it has improved their perception towards interprofessional learning. This pre-registration interprofessional education could prepare them for more comprehensive interprofessional team learning at post-registration level.
