Abstract

Objective: aims to measure the achievement of inter-professional competency of apothecary and medical students after taking IPE in a form of home care visit.

Methods: Fifty-eight students of pharmacy and seventy-eight medical students are listed in the community health interprofessional program (COHIP) by simulation on prescription service and followed by home visit to patients of public health center. Evaluation is conducted by taking the design of pre-test and post-test quasi-experimental without group control. The research result is measured by using Interprofessional Collaborative Competency Attainment Scale (ICCAS) consists of communication, collaborative, roles and responsibilities, collaborative patient/family-centered approach, conflict management/resolution, and team functioning. The compiled data are displayed descriptively in which statistical paired sample T-test was conducted.

Result: 134 respondents involved in this program had finished the pre-test and post-test. The highest mean values of IPE activity of apothecary and medical student are collaborative and conflict management/resolution domain. The overall statistical analysis result of ICCAS domains and items shows significant improvement.

Conclusion: Home visit program and simulation on prescription service in a frame of community health interprofessional program have effect towards the improvement of inter-professional competency of pharmacy and medical students, which consists of Communication, Collaborative, Roles and Responsibilities, Collaborative Patient/Family-Centered Approach, Conflict Management/Resolution, and Team Functioning.
