Purpose/Goal
The healthcare industry is being both supported and shaped but the infusion of an array of technology influencing the intersections of care. In order to achieve the goals of better quality, safety, and outcomes through technology, visionary leadership is needed. The DNP is poised to be that leader in today’s technology rich environments. This presentation will explore the potential of the DNP in leading this evolution in care.

Meeting the complex needs of our patients goes beyond the boundary of Nursing. It requires teamwork and collaboration with other professions and, as a precursor, requires interprofessional education (IPE). Simulation has become the preferred medium for IPE. Interprofessional education requires brave examination of professional boundaries and in the process, skillfully blurring boundaries and creating new boundaries. Due to the size and nature of our profession, nursing is in many ways the most powerful and most capable of creating organizational change. Nurse Educators are often the designee of such simulation-enhanced IPE activities, challenged to facilitate the learning of a myriad of professions simultaneously. Such boundary-spanning responsibilities seem daunting.
This talk aims to:
1) Discuss the importance of IPE and how simulation is a vehicle for achieving quality IPE,
2) Highlight the role of Nurse Educators as IPE leaders contributing to a new field, and
3) Provide tools to assist nurse educators in creating learning beyond boundaries.
