Why Does Teamwork Matter

9

• Teamwork matters, as highlighted below, and we want to ensure that we equip Fellows with effective tools to  allow your teams to function at their highest level. Key reasons why teamwork matters, include: – Poor communication and teamwork is the most common root cause of patient harms

– Poor teamwork is source of job dissatisfaction, burnout and employee turnover

– Teamwork is not the focus of most clinical education efforts, so few staff are well equipped to work as teams

– Teamwork is linked to outcomes that hospitals focus on most, such as lower:• HCAHPS scores• Safety culture scores

Institute of Medicine(IOM) Report

This report lays out a comprehensive strategy by which government, health care providers, the industry and consumers can reduce preventable medical errors. The reports goes on to say that there should be a minimum goal a 50 percent reduction in errors over the next five years, concluding that the know‐how already exists to prevent many of these mistakes. 

November, 1999

“…approximately 100,000 patients die inthe hospital each year from medicalErrors, and 72 % resulted fromcommunication errors…”

10

… and all of us in this room are keenly aware of the IOM Report in relation to communication errors:

• Free, public use application of principles of crew resource management optimized for health care teams

– Developed by Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) Patient Safety Program, in collaboration with Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality (AHRQ)

– Supported by 20 years of research on the impact of teamwork on broad range of quality and safety outcomes, including safety culture, staff and patient satisfaction

• Modular materials that include:– Resources for a variety of care settings and faculty – Tools to address teamwork challenges relevant to ten clinical topics HENs are targeting

Shared Mental Model

A shared knowledge and understanding, e.g. a shared mental model about a patient or patient plan amongst a healthcare team. 

• Provides common understanding of the situation, task responsibilities and information requirements

• Allows team members to anticipate one another’s needs so they can work synchronously

. . . for the benefit of the patient!! 22

SBAR provides…

A standardized framework for team members to effectively communicate information to one another.

• Communicate the following information:

• Situation (what is going on with the patient)

• Background (what is the clinical background/context)

• Assessment (what is the problem)

• Recommendation (what is the recommendation)

Remember to introduce yourself…  31

Call‐Out

Tactic used to communicate or share information with the whole team; may be directed at a specific individual (often the team leader). 

Two common situations:

1. Team member offering unrequested data/information– RN: “Latest BP is 80/50.”– Anesthesia provider arrival on scene: “Anesthesia is here.”

2.    Data/information provided in response to a request:– Leader: “Airway status?” – Team member: “Airway clear.”– Leader: “Breath sounds?”– Team member: “Breath sounds decreased on right.” 33

Cross‐Check

Closed‐loop communication strategy used to verify a request is received.  Sender initiates request or message, receiver confirms he/she has received the request. 

Bob, the Team Leader says: “Joe, get me a blood gas.” 

Joe, the Team Member cross‐checks: “Bob, I will get the blood gas.”

34

Page 35: AHA/HRET HEN Improvement Leader Fellowship, Wave … Wave 2... · AHA/HRET HEN Improvement Leader Fellowship, Wave 2: ... (quality improvement) teamwork is: ... organize a designated

A communication loop involving a sender initiating the message, and a receiver accepting the message and providing feedback that the task has been completed.  

Check‐Back

• Resident to nurse: “ Bill, Call anesthesia.”

• Nurse confirms by saying:“Calling for Anesthesia.”

• Nurse checks back:“I have contacted Anesthesia”  or“I have not been able to reach Anesthesia”

Mutual Support

The team is only as strong as its weakest link

•  Willingness and preparedness to assist other team members during patient care

•  Modeled by good leadership•  Derived from situational monitoring•  Moderated by communication

Mutual Support – Task Assistance

Task Assistance:• Assures success• Assures appropriate task assignment• Prevents task overload• Fosters a ‘team culture’

Climate in which assistance will be actively sought and offered as a method for reducing the occurrence of error.

“In support of patient safety, it’s expected!” 51

Page 53: AHA/HRET HEN Improvement Leader Fellowship, Wave … Wave 2... · AHA/HRET HEN Improvement Leader Fellowship, Wave 2: ... (quality improvement) teamwork is: ... organize a designated

Common Approaches to Conflict Resolution

• Compromise—Both parties settle for less

• Avoidance—Issues are ignored or sidestepped

• Accommodation—Focus is on preserving relationships

• Dominance—Conflicts are managed through directives for change

Typically do not result in the best outcome
