ABSTRACT, NIPNET 2024


INTERPROFESSIONAL GROUP DRUMMING

BACKGROUND
Music making in social groups can benefit the feeling of social coherence and well-being (Bonde et al. 2023). Improvisational music making in groups can be used to increase skills and confidence in group interactions by practicing listening, contributing, turn taking, and playing with or without shared goals. These skills are like e.g. to Jody Gittel’s theory of Relational Coordination in which respectful relationships with shared goals, timely, frequently and accurate communication are essential.

The usage of music in interprofessional communication has been documented by Eichorn et al. 2020, and it has been successfully practiced in interprofessional programs at KP.


METHODS
A workshop (20-40 minutes) in which the participants will practice interprofessional communication and collaboration by group-drumming.

Two different scenarios.
1. Workshop in auditorium, up to 500 participants. All participants have a table.
2. Workshop in classroom. Drums available for 12 participants.


RESULTS
Interprofessional drumming-workshops have been performed with 500 newly enrolled students at KP to introduce to interprofessional education and collaboration and to facilitate empowerment and a sense of coherence. The workshop created a high degree of attention from the participants, as well as a sense of happiness and social belonging.

DISCUSSION
There may be a potential for using music therapeutical tools for practicing interprofessional collaboration. More research and practice in the area is recommended.

CONCLUSION, TAKEAWAYS
Using music in interprofessional education could supplement and maybe strengthen interprofessional skills.
