Patient Safety Update: TeamSTEPPS® Training Module for Primary Care Teams Now Available

TeamSTEPPS® Training Module for Primary Care Teams Now Available
A new TeamSTEPPS® training module for primary care practices is now available in draft form.  Primary care practices can use this training curriculum to improve patient safety by teaching health care providers and staff how to communicate better, work more effectively, and make a greater commitment to teamwork.  TeamSTEPPS is an evidence-based learning approach jointly developed by AHRQ and the Department of Defense (DoD).  This approach has been used successfully in hundreds of civilian health care organizations and by the DoD over the past several years. This new module applies the four TeamSTEPPS core competencies: team leadership, situation monitoring, mutual support, and communication to the primary care setting.  It also includes case studies and videos relevant to primary care to illustrate these evidence-based concepts.  For more information on the new Primary Care TeamSTEPPS module, visit: http://www.ahrq.gov/teamsteppstools/primarycare/
You are subscribed to Patient Safety for Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). This information has recently been updated, and is now available.

TeamSTEPPS® Primary Care Version


The Primary Care version of TeamSTEPPS adapts the core concepts of the TeamSTEPPS program to reflect the environment of primary care office-based teams. The examples, discussions, and exercises below are tailored to the primary care environment.
For questions on how to use or implement this module or to offer feedback, call Richard Ricciardi, N.P., at 301-427-1578 or send an e-mail to richard.ricciardi@ahrq.hhs.gov.
