Assessing the Benefit to Pharmacy Students of a Complex Interprofessional Learning Simulation

Pharmacy students at Griffith University participate in role-play simulations with Medicine students. This particular interprofessional learning (IPL) activity requires pharmacy students to perform two ‘skills’ tasks, overlaid with clinical reasoning and verbal communication skills, in a setting that simulates the detached location and time constraints of community pharmacy. Learning objectives are taken from the Griffith Framework for IPL, and national Pharmacy School competency standards.
