New grant
January 2026
RECIPE received a 12-month innovation grant (€22,050) from the Centre of Expertise: Prevention in Care and Welfare (Centre of Expertise Preventie in Zorg en Welzijn), part of Inholland University of Applied Sciences, to investigate how interprofessional education can contribute to the prevention of medication-related harm in vulnerable older adults. Two studies will be conducted. The first study will compare patient-related and educational outcomes between mono-professional and interprofessional student teams performing medication reviews. The second study will qualitatively explore students’ experiences with interprofessional collaboration and how this approach can be embedded within healthcare curricula. The findings will be translated into a practical educational model applicable across multiple training programmes and care settings, aiming to improve patient safety, reduce healthcare workload, and prevent unnecessary hospital admissions.
