Event Description
This 2-hour workshop demonstrates the values/ethics core competency domain with IPE simulations. Novel activities include watching simulated legal closing arguments, deliberating on a jury panel with instructions to decide the merit of the case, jury voting on the outcome as hot seat or audience participants, and debriefing the simulation to include polling of all audience attendees on the merit of the case compared to the participants and discussion of the actual medical legal case results aligned with the values and ethics selected core competencies.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this learning activity, participants will be able to:
1. Articulate the complexity of teaching values and ethics regarding maintaining competence in one’s own profession to successfully contribute to interprofessional care.
2. Justify a decision that was handed down from the collaborative effort of an IPE Jury of one’s own peers, based on the merits of the case.
3. Advocate their position providing justification for health standards and health outcomes based on maintaining the integrity of one’s profession and standard of care.

IPE Simulation Schedule
6:00-6:20 - Introduction of presenters, Verbal Disclosures, Objectives, and Outline.
6:20-6:40 - Presentation of IPEC Values and Ethics Core Competency. (L.O.1). Nine IPE audience members will be assigned to a jury panel with instructional cards for their role.
6:40-6:45 – Introduction: simulation vignette is closing arguments from a medicolegal case.
6:45-7:10 - Multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary Immersive Activity for Medicolegal Jury Duty. Immersive Activity for Medicolegal Jury Duty. (L.O. 2). Jury participants will deliberate with an open discussion on the merits of the case and the instructions on their card.
7:10-7:30 - Simulated Deliberation for Jury Panel, (L.O. 3 Activity) At the end of deliberation, the head juror will call for a vote. Participants are free to vote how they would honestly vote regardless of their instructions. Head jury to tally the votes and announce verdict. From this experience, learners can apply what occurs in a legal deliberation to an IPE academic learning activity.
7:30-8:00 - Debriefing of simulation. Audience and participants will share their perspectives during debriefing, including discussion of the simulation and outcome, sharing previous experiences and examples of what they do for ethicolegal training and how they might handle situations in their respective programs or settings.
8:00-8:15 - Closing remarks, the audience can have an opportunity to ask questions and share final comments.
