Learning Clinical Assessment and Interdisciplinary Team Collaboration in Primary Care. MOOC for Healthcare Practitioners and Students

摘要

Novel ways to build sufficient capacity to meet the need for competent healthcare providers in primary care are in strong demand. We developed a massive, open, online course (MOOC) to introduce and promote clinical skills development for healthcare workers (physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, and nurse aids) and students in healthcare education (medical students and master and bachelor students in nursing) focusing on systematic health assessment and strengthening clinical decision making in primary care. Results from the pilot supports that the MOOC was relevant and highly useful for the participants, and has potential to contribute to interdisciplinary collaboration and discussions.
