Themes
 Why develop a UF Patient Safety/Quality
Improvement Course…
• Now?
• For medical students?
 How did we go about drafting a curriculum?
 What are we proposing to do in each year –
and especially the 3rd year?
Why a Patient Safety/QI
Course for Students… now?
 Institutional momentum
• Ferrero Case
• Influence of faculty trained in QI/safety to
organize existing “bits and pieces”
 Organizational momentum
• AAMC – “improving patient safety is our
responsibility” (2004)
• NSPF (VA), AMA, ACGME
 National momentum
• CMS (“non-payment for non-performance/error”)
(some) Preliminary Efforts
 Sub-I Introductory Lecture and Observed
Case reporting (Heather Harrell, Eric
Rosenberg)
 EBM, Clerkship Introductory talks
(Rosenberg)
 Simulation Exercises (Armstrong, others)
Students “get it”
 “my patient came into the ED for presyncope; she
was getting Clonidine instead of “Klonipin” for her
anxiety”
 “my patient refused to go to radiology to get a
dialysis catheter placed; she was right to refuse -they had come for the wrong patient”
 “my patient told the team he was on the ‘same med
list’ as before… we didn’t review his medications
with him, we just recopied the old ones. He didn’t tell
us that his cholesterol medication had been
changed because he’d had rhabdomyolysis
recently… he again developed rhabdomyolysis while
on our service.”

How did we go about drafting
a curriculum?
 8 Task Force Meetings: 12/07 – 5/08
 Surveyed published curricula
 Agreed on multi-year course integrated into
existing courses, but with distinct identity,
course directors
 Developed goals and objectives for each year
 Developed specific activities, options, and
themes for each year
Curriculum Goals: MS-1, MS-2
 Understand patient safety fundamentals including
the importance of an organizational culture that
promotes teamwork and safety, the public focus on
patient safety and adverse events, patient safety
terminology, and the human impact of adverse
events.
 Understand key aspects of methods to improve
patient safety and clinical quality as well as the
interaction between quality improvement efforts in
the medical malpractice tort system.
Curriculum Goals: MS-3
 Recognize and describe adverse event and
patient safety challenges unique to different
specialties and be able to apply strategies
and techniques designed to prevent or
mitigate those events.
Objectives: MS-3
 Identify and analyze common clinical adverse
events.
 Differentiate the impact of system failures and
human factors in the development of adverse
events and discuss approaches to preventing and
mitigating those events.
 Identify and describe system level improvements
which will improve patient safety and reduce
adverse events.
 Identify and be able to apply individual strategies
and approaches to improve patient safety and
reduce adverse events.
Curriculum Goals: MS-4
 Demonstrate competence in key patient
safety and quality improvement skills and
conduct an individual project related to
patient safety in the student’s specialty
choice area.

 Development of CQI Project (with input from
Physician Quality Directors)
• Research/Write about quality of care issues

population
• Adopt a CQI project; participate in data collection,
analysis of ongoing research at SUF
Methods of Evaluation
 Non-credit, required course
 Attendance at all required course activities
 Final exam at close of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, (and 4th)
year (incorporate into clinical skills exam
series if possible)
 Completion of writing assignments
 Completion of Quality Improvement Project
Who will teach it?
 We all will.
 We need more faculty development in this
area, but a wide variety of “open source”,
practical, case-based materials
 Many key concepts are intuitive for the
experienced clinician
• For example, to do a “root cause analysis”:
describe the event, identify the immediate cause
of the adverse event, identify the contributing
causes (latent errors), create an action plan.
How will we know if this is
effective?
 Plan continuing evaluation, evolution of the
curriculum
 Administration of surveys to gauge changes
in attitudes, knowledge, skills
 Establishment of more formal curricula in UF
residency training programs
 Impact on institutional culture, patient
satisfaction, quality
Is it safe to speak up?
 Speak up scripts “I need clarification” to avoid confrontational speech
 People may ignore you
•
Can’t change the world even though the world needs changing
 There are specific avenues to explore in the longer term – even if
people are ignoring you in the short term
•
We can put you in touch with people interested in fixing this problem – it
won’t be business as usual forever
 There are others to talk to in the hierarchy (dean, chairs, QI directors,
clerkship directors)
 We can ask departments to make a general commitment to respond to
those who report problems
•
•
“We’ve made a general commitment to respond in a certain way”
“We will engage and not attack people
Wears: “perhaps the best test of whether safety culture exists is what happens
when a lower status hierarchy person brings up a problem – and they’re
mistaken about whose patient it is… if they don’t get beat up, that’s a healthy
culture…”
Quality is not just meeting
Performance Measures
 “a hospital can be seen as a high quality
organization – receiving awards for being a
stellar performer and oodles of cash from
P4P programs – if all of its “pneumonia”
patients receive the correct antibiotics, all its
“CHF” patients are prescribed ACE inhibitors,
and all its “MI” patients get aspirin and beta
blockers. Even if every one of the diagnoses
was wrong.” – Bob Wachter
