IPE 505: 在厄瓜多尔的跨专业教育经历

课程描述:

This interprofessional practice experience is dedicated to preparing students of the health professions at 利记sbo for interprofessional, collaborative practice of patient care through innovative (nationally and internationally recognized) practice experience. It is a zero to one credit hour experience that is composed of 15 hours of interaction in interprofessional practice setting with peers of different health professions to achieve appropriate patient/client care.

在厄瓜多尔, 参加者将参观公众, 私人, 以及两个城区的非营利医疗机构. 该项目从基多开始, working in partnership with a local university with patient contact in a small 私人 clinic and a large public hospital. 然后该项目转移到圣多明各, where a local nonprofit will facilitate patient contact hours in a marginalized neighborhood. 在这两个地方, students will work in small interprofessional teams guided by a local medical practitioner and their 利记sbo professors. Students will also have time to experience the wonder and beauty of 厄瓜多尔’s natural attractions.

计划的细节

厄瓜多尔是一个有着惊人多样性和鲜明对比的国家, 面积比科罗拉多州还小. Less than a day of travel in 厄瓜多尔 can bring someone from the beaches of the Pacific Ocean high into the Andes Mountains staring at snow-capped peaks and then down into the jungles of the Amazon basin. 除了大量的混血儿人口, 厄瓜多尔有14个土著群体, each with its own language and traditions that often include ancestral medicine and spiritual healing.

Due to the high degree of economic disparity, access to healthcare in 厄瓜多尔 is often inequitable. 厄瓜多尔 has two primary healthcare platforms: a public healthcare system providing outpatient care to the general population, and the Social Security healthcare service providing care only to those formally employed. 后者装备精良. 前者基本上资源不足. Despite these problems, 厄瓜多尔 has come a long way over the last two decades. The country ranks 20th among most efficient healthcare countries of the world, 与2000年的第111位相比. 这一进步在很大程度上要归功于医疗政策改革, 然而，在获得和质量方面的不平等仍然存在, 尤其影响到少数群体和农村人口. Recent efforts have seen a fusion of 厄瓜多尔’s modern medicine with traditional, indigenous medicine. 我们将在拟议的计划中探讨这个想法.
