P03.05. Creating an interprofessional curriculum in integrative medicine for medical, nursing, pharmacy, and dentistry students: curriculum mapping strategies

چکیده
Purpose An increasing number of academic health institutions are committed to integrative medicine (IM) principles, including partnership between patient and practitioner; collaborative, interprofessional health care; and promotion of health and the prevention of illness. The objective of this five-year project is to develop, implement, evaluate, and disseminate a multidisciplinary, interprofessional curriculum in IM. Our first aim was to map the existing IM curricula to examine the content longitudinally within each school, as well as across schools. To do this, we added to traditional curriculum mapping methods by eliciting faculty and students’ perspectives through interviews.
