Description
March 12, 2025
Strong teamwork and communication are the backbone of effective health care. At UT Southwestern Medical Center, we have created a hands-on, simulation-based curriculum to teach incoming medical trainees these critical skills early in their training. Grounded in the TeamSTEPPS framework, this approach encourages psychological safety and teamwork and aligns with the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) core competencies. Learn how to design and implement a structured training program that equips new medical trainees with the confidence and collaboration skills needed to excel in their practice.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe how a simulation-based curriculum can strengthen teamwork, communication, and professionalism among new medical trainees
- Identify key patient safety, leadership, and communication skills that align with ACGME core competencies and milestones
- Apply TeamSTEPPS tools to help interns navigate real-world clinical scenarios with greater confidence and collaboration
