Q

What were some future research options from the study?

A

Explore other IP teams

Try different methodological approach

Q

Why is this study relevant to practice?

A

Can lead from established health care teams

Experienced HCP work well in IP teams, providing IP education to new practitioners may help them establish this approach early in their careers and build on it

Results can be used by dietetic educators and preceptors

Benefits of working in rural/remote areas may encourage new grads to work in these practice settings
