Blueprint for Action in Ontario

• Alignment of Michener Achievements with the IPC
  Blueprint

The Ontario health care system will function
more effectively if it embraces the practice
of interprofessional care. This Blueprint was
developed following a year-long process of
obtaining input from decision makers and leaders
in the health care and education sectors, as well
as consumers. Achieving effective implementation
of interprofessional care requires a
comprehensive action plan that identifies the
roles each partner or participant should
undertake. This Blueprint provides direction on
key foundational activities that should be
carried out in the short, medium and long term.

Alignment of Michener Achievements with the IPC
Blueprint
We believe that Michener can serve as a valuable
resource for HealthForce Ontario and the
implementation teams involved in the evolution of
IPC in Ontarios health system based on our
experience with IPC in teaching, learning and
clinical practice IPC Principles and
Processes The principles and processes of IPC
have been successfully integrated into the core
curriculum of all of Micheners programs for the
2007 academic year. Evolving refinement of IPC in
our curriculum is supported by effective
organizational feedback mechanisms. IPC in
Clinical Practice Professional development for
our educators, our clinical partners and
providers in the health system has been developed
and is available to support the transformation of
clinical practice in Ontario. Evidence Based
Impacts of IPC Analysis of the impacts of IPC on
our educators, students and in the clinical
setting serves to support the evidence based, not
evidence informed evolution of IPC.
