This review of research from 2010 to 2025 shows that while interprofessional education (IPE) effectively reshapes how students approach patient safety—boosting both their collaborative attitudes and communication skills—it still struggles to bridge the gap between the classroom and the bedside. While models like high-fidelity simulation show promise, there is a distinct lack of hard evidence linking this training to actual changes in clinical behavior or improved patient health. Moving forward, the field needs to overcome practical hurdles like scheduling conflicts and rigid medical hierarchies by shifting focus from student feedback to real-world clinical outcomes, eventually folding IPE into a more standardized, integrated medical curriculum.
