| Abstract | ||||
| To deliver high quality health care to Muslim patients requires providers have a basic awareness of the Islamic faith and beliefs. This paper reports on how five academic programs from two universities in Rural West Texas have developed, implemented, assessed, and continue to develop an interprofessional simulation (IPS) program that incorporates challenges specifically related to the medical assessment of Muslim patients. It is through this process that social work, nursing, pharmacy, occupational therapy, and speech and language pathologists will be better prepared to assess and treat Muslim patients in a culturally competent manner, in an attempt to address discrimination and improve medical results. | ||||
