Popis: | Background: Despite the push for resident and faculty involvement in patient safety (PS) and quality improvement (QI), there is limited literature describing programs that train them to conduct PS/QI projects. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of a co-learning PS/QI curriculum. Method: The authors implemented a co-learning (residents and faculty together) PS/QI curriculum within our general Internal Medicine program over 1 year. The curriculum consisted of two workshops, between-session guidance, and final presentation. The authors evaluated effectiveness by self-assessment of attitude, knowledge, and behavior change and PS/QI project completion. Results: Thirty-eight of 32 (95%) resident and 8 faculty member participants attended the workshops and 27 of 40 (67%) completed the evaluation. Participants (87–96%) responded favorably regarding workshop effectiveness. The authors found significant improvement in 78% of items pertaining to PS/QI knowledge/skills, but no difference for attitudinal items. The final project evaluation participants rated project content as relevant to learning needs (75%); training as well-organized (75%); faculty mentorship for the project as supportive (75%); and the overall project as excellent or very good (71%). Conclusion: The authors successfully demonstrated a framework for co-teaching faculty and residents to conduct PS/QI projects. Participants acquired necessary tools to practice in an ever-evolving clinical setting emphasizing a patient-centered and quality-focused environment. |
