CCME 2011 sharing

This presentation by Joan Sargeant at the 2011 SCCPD retreat explores the critical integration of quality improvement (QI) in continuing medical education (CME). With an alarming statistic of 98,000 annual deaths in the U.S. due to medical errors, the session discusses methods to prevent errors through education and system change. Key considerations include bridging gaps between academia and clinical practice, promoting patient engagement, and embedding safety and QI concepts into medical curricula. Learn practical strategies to enhance learning and improve healthcare outcomes.

  2. Integrating quality improvement (QI) in CME and across the continuum • Source: Plenary, SCCPD retreat • Contact: Dr Brian Wong, U Toronto (internist, QI scholar) • Key points: • In US 98,000 people die /year due to medical error (i.e., an airline crash per day with 300 people) • How can we prevent errors? • QI approach of studying “near misses” etc and seeking improvement (P, D, S, A cycle) • Improve through education and system change

  3. 1. Integrating quality improvement in CME and across the continuum • How to integrate these concepts into med ed? • CME and PGME, e.g., turn M&M rounds into discussions of how to prevent negative outcomes • Challenge for CME – link to clinical departments (bridge gap between academia and clinical worlds) • PG and UG: • Introduce concepts of safety, QI, error prevention • Provide practical opportunities; e.g., near miss, error cases; QI committees, other? • Are safety and QI a focus of our curricula? Should they be?

  4. 2. Involving patients in med ed across the continuum • 2 opportunities: • Informal discussion with Bernard Charlin, Head Scholarship Unit, U Montreal & Cynthia Andrews, Dal • U Montreal also interested in how to better engage patients/ public in UGME and IPE • Links with Cynthia and Health Mentors Program re how to pursue this • E.g., potential for co-submitting a workshop or education innovation to CCME next year, collaborative work

  5. 2. Involving patients in med ed across the continuum • Source – SCCPD retreat plenary • Dr Mike Evans, Fam Med, and Health Design Lab, U of T; drmikeevans.com • How to move from educating patients to engaging patients in their health care? (i.e., self-management) • Concept of clinician as “curator of education materials” for patients/ public • How to engage patients as “drivers” of med ed? • Visiting Halifax June 13, 14; would like to work with us

  6. Evidence-based medicine, Informatics, Librarians, Critical thinking • Posters: • P-049 Heather Murray , Queens • P-054 Trina Fyfe, Kristina David, UBC • Activities – • Online and face to face sessions on searching the literature, information management , taught with or led by librarians • Identifying EBM materials • Integrating critical thinking • Exploring role of librarian on clinical teams

  7. EBM etc • Connect with at Dal: • UGME “Lifelong Learner” outcome • Library Patrick Ellis • Health Informatics Grace Paterson, • Critical thinking and EBM George Kephart and Harvard group (Preston Smith); • Dr Kassirer’s talks on critical thinking and searching the literature
