A Study on the Effectiveness of Interprofessional Collaborative Training in Enhancing Interprofessional Communication and Teamwork Among Nurses at X Hospital Jakarta

The establishment and maintenance of effective relationships between professionals is referred to as interprofessional collaboration. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of multidisciplinary collaborative practice training in improving communication and teamwork among professionals at RSIA X Jakarta. The study used a quasi-experimental design with a sample size of 35 nurses who were given Interprofessional Collaborative Practice training and 35 nurses as controls, with the criteria of having held the positions of Supervisor, Nurse on Duty and Head of Nursing department. Collaborative Practive Assesment Tool (CPAT) questionnaire was used to collect data. For data analysis, chi-square tests and multiple logistic regression tests were used to answer the research hypotheses. The study results showed that Interprofessional Collaborative Practice Training was found to improve nurse interprofessional communication (p=0,029) and nurse teamwork (p=0,000). Nurses who received IPCP training increased their chances of teamwork 13.1 times higher compared to nurses who did not receive training (control). This study recommends the need to conduct additional study involving respondens from various professions and the need to provide Interprofessional Collaborative Practice Training to all professional teams in the hospital. Mapping the career path is necessary to ensuring that the achievement of each level of clinical nurse structure are well balanced. A strategic plan is necessary to be implemented in order to achieve nurse education level up to the baccalaureate level and regulation must be reinforced to create interprofessional collaboration culture in the hospital
