Chief Learning Officer - April 2008 - (Page 24) Finally, even in an environment in which errors can have life-changing and possibly fatal impact, everyone realizes that mistakes will happen and people should learn from them. Therefore, teaching opportunities are created from certain near misses and outright errors. By exploring these situations during mandatory, routine conferences as well as through informal conversation, individuals glean personal and systemic lessons from medical errors. The Learning and Teaching Environment Along with these core values, top teaching hospitals espouse several principles that cement their learning environments and support the core values. • “It’s everyone’s role to teach.” Everyone in the teaching hospital has a role as teacher and is expected to be continually learning, all in the pursuit of providing the best possible patient care. • “Testing is a way of life.” Accountability is high in the hospital environment: Learning is measured through formal testing and credentialing, as well as through extensive real-time observation and feedback. • “Problem-based and team-based learning are the best methods.” Rather than learning through static case studies, individuals at these teaching hospitals learn as members of a medical team while addressing real-time patient problems. Not only does this problem-based and team-learning approach provide an excellent venue for learning, it also affords top-quality patient care. Core values form the foundation of each hospital’s learning environment and manifest themselves through unique educational processes and learning methods. Set your Sites on affordable training.
