Interprofessional Education (IPE) and Interprofessional Collaborative Practice (IPCP) have become essential educational approaches to improve the collaboration system and quality of health services. This study aims to provide an overview of the IPE/IPCP implementation strategy focusing on achieving core competencies and their outcomes. The narrative literature review study preferred the PRISMA model approach. The articles were analyzed from three electronic databases, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and PubMed. The search keywords used “Healthcare professional” AND “Interprofessional practice” OR “interprofessional education” AND “Nursing education” AND “Improved competencies” with the study criteria involved students or health professionals, last ten years, English version, and used experimental or observational, mixed methods design. A total of 14 articles met the criteria and were summarised. As a result, the IPE/IPCP implementation strategies with simulation, curriculum, and training focused on the main competencies produced essential outcomes, including increasing knowledge, skills, positive attitudes, and perceptions of students and health professionals and improving the quality of patient care. IPE/IPCP strategies such as an integrated curriculum, simulation, and training program were recommended for implementation in the institution or clinical setting. Sustainable IPE/IPCP strategies and outcomes are essential in promoting collaborative practice and quality healthcare.
