Primary care collaborative practice in quality improvement: Description of an interprofessional curriculum.

Purpose: An innovative quality improvement (QI)-focused interprofessional training curriculum for pharmacy residents and other healthcare trainees is described.

Summary: Effective interprofessional collaboration and the ability to carry out QI initiatives are important skills for all healthcare trainees to develop when they are in training. To cultivate those skills, in 2011 a Veterans Affairs medical center in Idaho implemented a unique yearlong interprofessional curriculum for healthcare trainees, including postgraduate year 1 (PGY1) and postgraduate year 2 (PGY2) pharmacy residents, physician trainees in internal medicine, nurses, and psychologists.
