GME 202: The Faculty Role: Understanding & Modeling Fundamentals of Quality & Safety
Overview
Just because you agree that quality and safety are priorities doesn’t mean you will feel well prepared to lead the charge in these complex areas. You may be at the very beginning of your own journey toward becoming proficient in quality improvement and patient safety (QI/PS) — and that’s okay. In this course, you’ll gain a better understanding of your current knowledge of QI/PS, and then have the opportunity to expand your knowledge where it may be lacking. Even if you haven’t received formal training in these areas, we’ll show you that teaching QI/PS skills to the next generation relies on faculty like you.
Course Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Explain why it is important for faculty members to engage trainees in meaningful QI/PS work that is tied to everyday clinical care.
- Describe four principles for designing educational experiences in QI/PS.
- List the core competencies in QI/PS that every faculty member should possess.
- List several ways faculty can model the use of improvement principles in everyday work.
