Symposium: Interprofessional collaboration to advance nursing education and research

Abstract

Young adults going into health related fields are not always thrilled to care for an aging population and many lack the knowledge and empathy needed. An interprofessional simulation created an environment in which the student takes on the role of an older adult. Significant impact on empathy was noted.
