7. IPEC Competency Domain: “Role Clarity and Responsibility” Use the knowledge of one’s own role and those of other professions to appropriately assess and address the healthcare needs of the patients and populations served. IPEC Report, 2011

8. Role Clarity and Responsibility Stereotyping and Biases • Stereotyping related to professional roles, demographic & cultural differences affect the health professions • Stereotypes help create ideas about a profession’s worth known as “disparity diversity” (Edmondson & Roloff, 2009), eroding mutual respect. • Inaccurate perceptions about diversity prevent professions from taking advantage of the full scope of abilities that working together offers to improve health care.

9. IPEC Competency Domain: Role Clarity and Responsibility- specific • RR1. Communicate one’s roles and responsibilities clearly to patients, families, and other professionals. • RR2.

13. Interprofessional Pictionary • As a team, decide who the health care professional is based on information provided • Draw a representation of the health care professional without using letters or numbers • Be prepared to share how everyone has contributed to the drawing • After each team finishes drawing, the other teams should guess the profession prior to discussion

14. IP Pictionary: Reflection • What assumptions am I making? • Where did I learn these values? • What values/beliefs orient me? • How might someone whose role is different than mine look at this? • Why do I feel threatened when I am challenged on this? (McKee, 2003)
