Background: There is a rising need for high-quality, efficient healthcare. Implementing interprofessional cooperation (IPC) between healthcare professionals is one of the initiatives that has raised the standard of treatment in hospitals. The disparity in competence amongst health professionals is one of several elements that affect the requirements for the successful implementation of cooperation.
Objective: To examine the attitudes, abilities, teamwork, and positive roles implemented by health workers in interprofessional collaboration practices.
Method: Cross-sectional research methodology was used in this observational study. The Chiba Interprofessional Competency Scale (CICS29) instrument, which has 29 verified items, was used to evaluate the proficiency of health workers. The value of five (always) until one (never) was used to distinguish between the various categories.
Result: A very good Cronbach alpha score of 0.921 was used to verify the questionnaire. Exactly 109 health professionals, including 21 physicians, 34 pharmacists, 50 nurses, and four nutritionists, participated in the study as respondents.
Conclusion: Based on the study's findings, it was determined that health professionals, including physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and nutritionists, possess a high level of competence or capacity regarding interprofessional collaboration in hospitals.
