Abstract:

AIM: This study investigated the impact of an interprofessional mock code on students' comfort and competency related to Parkinson's disease (PD) medication administration during care transitions. BACKGROUD: Patients with PD are at increased risk for medication errors during hospitalization. Individualization of PD medication creates vulnerability during care transitions. METHOD: Four interprofessional groups took part in this study: baccalaureate degree senior nursing students (n = 113), master's level nurse anesthesia students (n = 35), doctor of osteopathic medicine fourth-year students (n = 32), and doctor of clinical psychology fourth-year students (n = 22). Groups participated in an unfolding case study simulation involving a mock code with a focus on the omission of time-sensitive PD medication. Pre- and postsimulation test results were compared. RESULTS: Findings indicated an increased understanding among three of the four groups relating to medication timing during care transitions. CONCLUSION: All groups improved with respect to perceived comfort and competency.
