dc.description.abstractBackground: Inter-agency working (IW) is critical to the delivery of safe and effective health care to service users, families, and health-care staff to ensures that high-quality, consistent care is always available for the users. Several studies have advised that pre-registered health students get Inter-professional Education (IPE) to improve their knowledge and attitudes regarding inter-agency collaboration. Students, on the other hand, are unsure of the relevance of these concepts to their careers and demonstrate a lack of interest in studying. Similarly, the optimal approach to learn inter-agency collaboration has yet to be determined. Objectives: The aim of the study is to explore the impact of peer-initiated authentic drama on pre-registered students’ attitudes towards health care team working before and after module implementation with content on health and social care integration/inter-agency working. Methods: In this study, a quantitative (before-and-after) design was chosen. The study included second-year nursing students from Bachelors in Nursing (BN) and Masters in Nursing (MN) programmes who were studying the module 'Effective Interagency Working in Health and Social Care.' A convenience sample of 450 student nurses completed a pre- and post-module questionnaire. For data analysis, descriptive analysis and the Paired Sample T test were used. Results: Overall, there was an increase in the student nurses’ attitudes towards health care team working, understanding of health and social care integration and confidence around working within integrated health and social care landscapes with 80%-90% of participants agreeing or strongly agreeing with the survey questionnaire. With regards to paired sample T test results, these demonstrated that there was no significant difference between the mean pre-module score and mean post-module score ratings (p=.136). Conclusion: Drama-based nursing education is a real-world learning strategy that helps students gain a better understanding of health-care team working. This innovative instructional technique should be employed in the curricula of pre-registration health students in the future.pt_PT
