Interprofessional Education
Sinai Health Interprofessional (SHIP) Rounds is a virtual series of lunch-and-learn sessions where an interprofessional group of physicians, employees and learners from Hennick Bridgepoint and Mount Sinai Hospitals learn with, from and about each other. The series runs monthly from September through June, and presentation topics focus on interprofessional management of issues affecting Sinai Health people and the patients and families that we serve. Themes include sharing best practices in the management of our patient populations, ethical and legal considerations in care, addressing health systems challenges, health-care provider wellness and resilience, providing updates in research and evidence-based care, as well as collaborative practice and dealing with complexity. Each session has interactive components and an opportunity for participant feedback. SHIP Rounds are accredited by the College of Family Physicians of Canada (Mainpro+ 1 credit) and the Royal College (1 hour/session).
