  1. Pneumonia Day One small step for IPE, One large step for RRC (with apologies to Neil Armstrong)

  2. Our programs • At RRC, we have Baccalaurate Nursing, Medical Laboratory Science, Medical Radiation Technology, Primary Care Paramedicine, MRI, Dental Assisting, and Health Care Aide – 1000 students • These programs are found in 3 different departments, with 3 chairs, but are all part of the School of Health Sciences and Community Services

  3. Our realities • We are located in a 50 year old building with many out dated labs and classrooms • Our province has not funded simulation and IPE similar to other jurisdictions • We have to “fight” the rest of the college for capital and renovations • To begin IPE, we had to “think within the box”

  4. What we did for Pneumonia day • February 2012 – PCP, Med Lab and Med Rad students (approx 100) got together • PCP … the symptoms of pneumonia • Med Rad …the x-ray, a CT scan – normal vs abnormal • Med Lab …pneumonia “under the microscope” • Presentations made by faculty

  5. Processing the learning • Worksheets were developed for the students • Facilitated discussions to see the need to work together • No formal evaluations were undertaken

  6. What came next? • In April, they had MI day • PCP taught the on scene assessment with a 12 lead EKG showing the abnormal pattern • MLS – chemistry analysis – Troponins level • MRT – angiography suite, cardiology, xray • Showed blocked artery and demonstrated the repair • Positive feedback, but watch acronyms

  7. Where do we go from here? • The plans for next year will expand to include nursing • Appropriate changes will be made to the time tables • Students will start to make the presentations instead of faculty • Eventually, this work will be evaluated
