Évaluation d’un dispositif de formation à l’interprofessionnalité chez les étudiants en santé

Context Palliative care practices are complex and require coordination of skills from caregivers from different professions (1). Interprofessional collaboration is widely encouraged, starting from the initial training (2). In France, an interministerial directive issued in May 2017 called for the creation of interdisciplinary education for health students. Within the university, we set up a one-day training on interprofessionalism in the context of palliative care, involving nursing students, medical students, and physiotherapy students. An evaluation through the IGAS report (3) highlights logistical difficulties in deploying this type of education. This study attempts to understand how such a program contributes to the professionalization of students, particularly by measuring the persistence of learning. Method A scale measuring the construction of an interprofessional community of practice in health (CIPS) (4) was administered three times at three different points to students participating in this day: at T0 before the program, at T1 immediately after, and at T2, one month later. This scale measures five dimensions: objectives, norms, social bonds, motivation, and agency. The Student's t-test was used on paired samples. n=277 respondents and 266 usable questionnaires. Results show that in the post-test, all five dimensions are strengthened, then a significant decrease begins in the following month, ultimately losing all significance at one month. Conclusion In light of these results, the conditions of this type of training program on interprofessionalism in a palliative care context need to be reconsidered. It is crucial to question how initial health education contributes to the building of interprofessional identity in the context of palliative care and end-of-life care. References (1) Aiguier, G.
