The Interprofessional Care for People with Multiple Chronic Conditions (IPCMCC) modules will prepare you to work in interprofessional teams to foster self-management by patients with multiple chronic conditions through the application of proven coaching strategies. The ICPMCC materials focus on working within an interprofessional collaborative practice in outpatient settings, with an emphasis on coaching to enhance patient engagement and improve patient self-management skills. The materials integrate the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) interprofessional education competencies (IPEC Expert Panel, 2011) with the Chronic Care Model (Wagner, et al, 2001). All learning materials stress the importance of patient and family-centered care and the role of the community in supporting health and health care.
