ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The response to adverse events can lack patient-centeredness, perhaps because the involved institutions and other stakeholders misunderstand what patients and families go through after care breakdowns. STUDYSETTING:
Washington and Texas. STUDYDESIGN:
The HealthPact Patient and Family Advisory Council (PFAC) created and led a five-stage simulation exercise to help stakeholders understand what patients experience following an adverse event. The half-day exercise was presented twice. DATA COLLECTION ANDANALYSIS:
Lessons learned related to the development and conduct of the exercise were synthesized from planning notes, attendee evaluations, and exercise discussion notes. PRINCIPALFINDINGS:
One hundred ninety-four individuals attended (86 Washington and 108 Texas). Take-homes from these exercises included the fact that the response to adverse events can be complex, siloed, and uncoordinated. Participating in this simulation exercise led stakeholders and patient advocates to express interest in continued collaboration.CONCLUSIONS:
A PFAC-designed simulation can help stakeholders understand patient and family experiences following adverse events and potentially improve their response to these events.Palabras clave
