"The Safety Dance": A Faculty Development Workshop Partnering IPE and Patient Safety Initiatives Using Simulation-Based Education.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) is important for improving patient outcomes and patient safety; however, interprofessional education (IPE) is required to develop skills necessary for successful IPC. IPE is resource intensive and requires advance planning and negotiation of logistical challenges. The goal of this faculty development workshop is to train administrators and educators from academic health care institutions to address potential challenges faced during design and implementation of IPE programs.

Methods

This educational module presents best practices for implementing simulation-based IPE to enhance patient safety through an interactive workshop. We utilize hands-on practice with coaching through a facilitated small-group tabletop simulation follo
