Abstract
Program Description: Our expertise and skill are essential, but not sufficient, for optimal patient outcomes. We work with teams and we work within systems with variable functionality. How can we make sure our team works together effectively? How can we improve the systems within which we work? An expert panel will describe how we can use simulation and the science of human factors to improve the processes, the equipment, and even the spaces in which we work. Examples address emergency response teams, airway carts, and electronic health records. Our keynote speaker, F. Jacob Seagull, PhD, is an expert in human factors applications in health care. Educational Objectives: (1) Understand how simulation can be used to improve health care delivery systems and safety. (2) Understand how human factors principles can be applied to improve health care delivery systems and safety.
