Abstract
The term of management characterises the process of leading and directing all or part of an organization, often a business, through the manipulation of resources (human, financial, material, intellectual or intangible). Inter-professional collaboration, contribution, between nurses and physicians is an effective example of the management. The purpose of this study was to measure and compare collaboration between nursing and medical student. The Jefferson Scale of Attitudes Toward Physician-Nurse Collaboration scale developped by Hojat et al. was used. The study included a total of 431 students from three medical faculties and three nursing colleges in Istanbul.
Mean age of the students is 21.212.66. Among 431 students 42.9% (185) were male, 57.1% (246) were female. Nursing school students mean collaboration score was significantly higher than medical school students (p< 0.05 and t= 3.88).
Comprising collaborative learning opportunities for nursing and medical students in their curriculum is feasible. Learning in multi-professional groups will help to increase understanding of others' professional roles by improving patient care and personal development.
