title: Discovering eHealth Technology: An Innovative Interprofessional Graduate Student Learning Experience.
abstract: The use of eHealth has grown in recent years and is projected to continue to increase exponentially. In order to empower and prepare advanced practice providers to integrate eHealth into their clinical practice, curricular changes need to occur. The iTEAM grant provides a unique opportunity to prepare advanced practice disciplines to provide collaborative care using eHealth. Through the integration of a simulated telehealth using a standardized patient, Doctor of Pharmacy and Advanced Practice Registered Nursing students learned how to apply health information technology and coordinate care in an interprofessional manner. Opportunities and challenges to guide future efforts to integrate eHealth-learning experiences into the curriculum are identified.
