The surge in healthcare demands due to the explosion of growth in the aging adult population demands that academic institutions address enhanced education of Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs). This is particularly challenging amidst nurse faculty shortages in specialty areas, stemming from factors such as lack of pay competitiveness with clinical positions, and doctoral-prepared nurses seeking faculty positions. Despite efforts to address the shortages, recruitment challenges persist, necessitating innovative approaches. This article explores the interprofessional collaborative teaching between Nurse Anesthesia (NA) and Adult Gerontology Nurse Practitioner (NP) programs, focusing on airway management, sedation techniques, chest X-ray interpretation, and ultrasound skills. To date, this collaboration between NA and NP faculty has proven effective. Both synchronous and online asynchronous teaching have received overwhelmingly positive student feedback. Ongoing communication and collaborations between NA and NP faculty facilitate teaching and educational strategies across programs, sharing faculty expertise, and mitigating reduced faculty numbers. This innovative model benefits faculty and students and provides a platform for firsthand interprofessional collaboration, fostering mutual respect and preparing students for effective interdisciplinary healthcare teamwork.
