| At the end of this module[Doc U Drama], I actually felt encouraged and energized to go and try some of these things. |
Excellent: very helpful; expertly taught. Highly motivating. This method is perhaps the best 'intellectual hook' to engage residents in Patient Safety. |
| I was especially impressed with the surgical resident paging me to ask your name. First it was quite unusual that a surgery resident was interested in this non-traditional info weeks later. Second, it was clear that he had spent quite a while discussing human factors and patient safety with his brother and that the conversations would continue. |
Excellent, practical content.
Very informative workshop on a lot of material new to me. |
| Very good thus far - better than anticipated - instructors very dynamic. |
[re:HFE] Surprising info for me - hadn't considered all of that. |
Time far too short; just no way to get around it - add some time to the conference. |
| Good exercises! |
Enjoyed small groups, RCA, and activity with products - excellent way to teach hands-on. |
[re: RCA] Excellent! Very useful for residents! |
| Agree that we need to teach scientific basis for patient safety. |
Great content. |
Very useful for resdient education. Excellent overlap with ACGME Competence of Systems-Based Practice and Problem-Based Learning and Improvement. |
| [re: RCA] This was an effective teaching tool - having team leaders was extremely helpful. |
The interactive format is great! |
Human Factors module is stupenous - the exercise really helped to solidify the experience. |
| A very worthwhile day. I look forward to discussions regarding personal logs and use of techniques at M & M conferences. |
Overall, I thought this day was great! I got lots of ideas for both my teaching and research. |
Workshop overall is excellent. Interactive teaching format keeps everyone engaged.
Great to hear implementation strategies. |
| Lots of opportunities for interaction with co-attendees - and sharing of ideas was very good. Also liked the very practical ideas presented. Great! |
[re: Swift and Long Term Trust] I had not considered developing trust but after the module I realize how important it is to open a discussion. |
| All speakers were excellent, very committed and sincere in their offer of help with further training. |
Great workshop - good info - useful. |
This was a great workshop - your attention to interactive learning, openness to comments made it a great experience. |
| Like emphasis on letting people tell their stories - good idea for teaching. |
Really liked the exercise with the Smints. |
[re: HFE] I liked this module, and I hope to add this into my practice. |
| Well organized, all content/format fits together in unified whole. Books, materials helpful. Powerpoints good - wll be eager to adapt for local presentation...Good group interactivity. |
Overall, conference is exceeding expectations. Well organized, good learning climate. |
[re: HFE] Excellent - examples especially helpful. |
| Cool idea to do simulation. |
[re: Hands-on Museum] Excellent approach: museum to illustrate product analysis. |
Appreciate acknowledgemnt of roadblocks, biases, etc. |
| Very helpful to see the re-enactment - sophisticated, engaging, helpful. |
Case & examples were excellent. I liked the variety of learning tools used. |
Like practice & small group format - more useful than lectures. Enjoyed the demonstrated role play & the opportunity to practice. |
| It was a well-crafted conference with really wonderful, knowledgeable, engaging speakers. |
Lots of examples - VERY helpful; allows us to choose from a toolbox to use those tools most practical for our situation...makes actually doing the curriculum do-ABLE. |
| [re: Patient Safety Case Conference] Really appreciated the historical perspective! |
Very helpful! |
[re: Doc-U-Drama] Fun and informative - a good way to bring it home. |
| Enjoyed the conference last week and wanted to take a
minute to let you know that I was able to incorporate several ideas
from the conference into my M&M conference last Friday .... it was a perfect chance to talk about several ideas from
the conference. It was well-attended (>100 people) and the discussion
about the missed opportunities to have caught the problem and how we
might alter our system to be safer was very well-received.... |
| An anesthesiology resident (recently) thanked me for arranging the sessions because they "really changed the way I think". This anesthesia resident went on to describe being more aware of the environment in which we work. The resident now recognizes and evaluates the potential impact of systems on patient care. |
...Similarly when faculty raises systems issues now, they frequently refer to "that guy who talked about systems and safety". They are recognizing patient safety issues in their daily work environment. |
| I think this is an area where a 'common curriculum' (or at least shared curricular tools) would be relevant across all three residencies. It best fits into two areas: 1. Making sure residents are involved in Safety initiatives at the Hospital and office level. and 2. Some formal curricular elements. The formal elements would be fairly easy to weave into.'System Based Practice' month and into some of the formalized practice management curriculum. |
| Biggest challenge was to both teach enough safety background to get us up to speed and to teach us how to teach it, all in 2 days. Conference faculty were well-prepared & offered a great deal of resources (& ideas) for how to implement locally. Was very valuable conference & I am eager to get to work back at the hospital. |
| I first showed residents the video of the nursing home oxygen tank incident and asked them to write down on an index card what they thought the error was and how to fix it. My attendance was small about 15-20 with residents coming and going but I collected 14 cards.
10 of 14 said that the nurse should be "properly trained" on tank usage as a means of fixing the problem. Several used the word "incompetent".
I then did some of the HFE examples like the Smints and the ACLS books. At the end I asked them to write down what they thought the error was and how to fix it on a separate card.
14 of 14 now had some HFE type solution ranging from digital indicators, color coding and re-engineering the valve. So, I feel happy having made a few pt safety converts today. |
