Program PurposeThe primary purpose of this program is to enhance knowledge on the interprofessional practices among health care professionals to improve the health and wellness of individuals with pancreatic cancer.

Needs StatementThe development of interprofessional health care teams has received growing attention throughout the past two decades. It has become increasingly evident that no one profession possesses all the skills and knowledge necessary for providing care to patients with complex health care problems.
