Developing the Next Generation of HIV Teams through Inter-Professional Practice at Ryan White Clinics

This workshop will describe how the Los Angeles Area AETC developed an inter-professional practice (IPP) program with the Charles Drew NP program, USC’s School of Pharmacy, UCLA’s School of Medicine, and the West LA’s psychiatric residency program -- along with five Ryan White clinics -- to help develop the next generation of HIV teams.

Learning Objectives

1. Describe how AETCs are developing the next generation of HIV faculty and clinicians through IPP and Inter-professional education (IPE) practices.
2. Discuss motivations and aspirations of NP, medical, and pharmacy students as well as psychiatric residents who pursue HIV IPP rotations at five Ryan White clinics in Los Angeles.
3. Consider how your AETC, planning body, health jurisdiction or other program can use HIV IPE and IPP programs to recruit the next generation of HIV providers trained in team-based care.
