Interprofessional Shadowing (IPSh) occurs when a learner from one profession spends time observing and interacting with practitioners or learners of another profession. SIAO is an approach used by University of Texas Austin with 2nd year PharmD students. Through direct observations and engaging dialogue with IP practitioners, students gain insight and collect information to complete the “SIAO report” for submission. Active observations may be completed with IP practitioners involved in patient-centered and/or population-oriented care.
This IPSh requirement is designed for intermediate learners.
