Improving interprofessional collaboration in pain clinics through simulation: a longitudinal Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale assessment

This project demonstrates that simulation-based training can sustain high levels of interprofessional readiness among outpatient pain clinic staff over time, suggesting utility for maintaining collaborative behaviours in a setting where safety and teamwork are paramount. Future efforts could investigate whether similar interventions improve IPC in clinics with lower baseline readiness, as well as explore longer follow-up periods or larger sample sizes to detect nuanced changes in collaboration metrics.
