Abstract

Abstract: Objective To design and implement an interprofessional education practice in clinical nurse-physician collaboration and explore the experiences of the nursing and physician faculty involved. Methods A qualitative research approach was used. From March to November 2023, one-on-one, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 13 nursing and physician faculty involved in an interprofessional education practice at the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University. Thematic content analysis was then applied to summarize and extract key themes from the data. Results Three primary themes emerged from the interview results: a mismatch between faculty initiative and competency, divergent views on the optimal timing for practice, and insufficient standardization and support in program management. Conclusions It is essential to enhance physician and nurse educators' learning of teaching strategies and their qualities such as educational leadership and integration capabilities. This should be combined with a comprehensive approach that integrates interprofessional education practices across multiple stages through institutional collaboration, aligning them with phased teaching objectives. Management should effectively strengthen teaching supervision and curriculum standardization, regulate practices through institutional policies, and promote implementation with incentive mechanisms. Ultimately, interprofessional education should be developed as an effective pathway for cultivating interdisciplinary talent.
