November Faculty Development Session

Teaching about Patient Safety

Thursday, November 2 | 12:00 – 1:00 pm| Presented by Jereme King, RN, and Dr.  Eloise Lopez-Lambert

Patient safety must be an intentional goal for clinicians and learners. Teaching about patient safety, when integrated in clinical-based learning opportunities, gets at both the importance of patient safety as well as ways to prevent errors. Additionally, incorporating patient safety early in the medical education curriculum helps to support a culture that is built on patient safety. Participants in this session examine strategies to improve patient safety and ways to incorporate them into learning opportunities.
