At the Academy for Emerging Leaders in Patient Safety, we use gaming, simulation and debriefs to educate future healthcare leaders on the importance of collaborative teamwork, effective communication and leadership skills in providing safe care. This is the Teeter Totter game.

This morning, learners broke into small groups to learn about and tackle human factor design flaws in common products. Poorly designed equipment and medical record flaws contribute to high numbers of preventable medical harm in hospitals.

After two long days in the classroom, our future healthcare leaders went on a morning hike to continue networking. Some took the path along the river, others climbed to 13,000 feet. Another great game in afternoon teaching effective communication skills #aelps #MedStarIQS

Great evening showing the HBO award winning movie “Bleed Out”. Producers Steve and Margo Burrows shared the story of their mother Judie Burrows who died from multiple medical errors and the horrible Delay, Deny and Defend tactics used by the hospital making their loss even worse

Great session led by Dr. Mark Graber, the founder of the Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine, sharing tools and techniques to improve diagnostic skills. Missed diagnoses are one of the top three causes of medical harm. #medstarIQS #sidm
