Abstract

Interprofessional education (IPE) and interprofessional collaborative practice (IPCP) are essential strategies for developing the necessary interprofessional competencies (IPC) for collaborative practice. While self‐assessment tools measuring IPC are widely used in educational settings, their application in primary health care (PHC) is limited. This study aimed to identify and analyse the available tools for assessing IPC in PHC, highlighting their characteristics and applicability.
