This year’s highly anticipated conference centers around understanding the full story of your audiences by fusing the cutting-edge capabilities, data, and technologies transforming healthcare.
Like many in healthcare, our academic medical center continues to recover from the stressors and consequences of the pandemic in an environment shaped by intensifying pressures, a dizzying array of accountability data sources, and stark evidence of increasing workforce fatigue and burnout. In health systems we frequently manage these issues in siloes, rather than recognizing their interrelatedness with a unified system and strategy around the Quintuple Aims of Health. Since 2023, the University of Michigan’s Center for Interprofessional Education (C-IPE) has collaborated with health system leaders in units responsible for these Aims to address our multifactorial challenges, and design a cohesive solution roadmap focused on enhancing interprofessional team-based care that can be replicated and scaled. This “C-IPE Systems Transformation Committee” first crosswalked multiple sources of Press Ganey data, and earned buy-in and support from executive leadership to identify units “thriving” and those in “crisis” in at UM-Health. Next, we determined which units would benefit most from our comprehensive support as partners and coaches for designing and executing customized local action plans focused on improving teamwork. Through this process, we collaboratively and cohesively worked to drive better engagement, safety, and the human experience. In this session, we will describe how we crafted a compelling evidence-based narrative to convene and receive support from leaders across every level, and how we are now engaging teams on the frontline to facilitate the application of these principles to the local context.
