INTERPROFESSIONALISM Working Better Together The GAPS Team, St George’s Advanced Patient Simulation & Skills Centre
The challenges to delivering multi professional simulation . . . …. In order to create Inter-professional learning @GAPSsimulation www.gapssimulation.com
SIMULATION FOR REAL TEAMS, IN REAL TEAMS WE DELIVER Multi-professional team training WE DELIVER Multi-professional skills training All our courses look to re-create the ‘real team’ in order to look at the non bias human factors / non technical skills required in routine and complex clinical management We train teams to work and look at team performance FEEDBACK Mission Statement : GAPS enhances patient care through learner-centred simulation and skills training. We design and deliver high quality programmes which recognise the essential place of multi-professional teams in the delivery of healthcare.

IPE - A social idea of learning & safety Sharing information and encouraging feedback giving and seeking – feedback slides Engaging in proactive and preemptive analysis with others about risks to safety – pre brief – what could go wrong? Being supportive and responsive to others with you – safety time outs – speaking up – reviewing together to identify the gaps and how we can fill them in the future Changing our perceptions of learning as a structured individual activity – group work, organisational learning as a team as opposed to individual Hollnagel et al. 2000; Weick and Roberts 1993; Reason 2004
Professional bodies using the GAPS learning centre. Over the 2015-2016 period of 365 days or 253 working days the department of 5 full time employees has produced 339 individual courses which is an average of 1.4 courses per working day. The 339 courses have had 1069 faculty and 4334 participants ‘booked on’ to attend courses in the GAPS centre.

HEE SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT FOR FOUNDATION YEAR DRS 1.6.3 To promote understanding of inter-professional working and provide multi-professional education, the Simulation training for Foundation Year Doctors in Training should also be encouraged for nursing staff (although these are not to be reported on as part of the evaluation). 1.6.4 The Provider must deliver the Programme as per the learning outcomes and simulation scenarios focussing on clinical skills mapped to the Foundation curriculum - http://www.foundationprogramme.nhs.uk/pages/home/training-and-assessment 1.6.5 As well as the rehearsal of clinical skills the Programme should enable candidates to enhance their understanding of communication skills, team-working, crisis resource management and the impact of human factors on patient safety 1.6.8 Each scenario and participant will undergo debriefing encouraging reflective practice and a deeper understanding of the learning points
Enhancing UK Core Medical Training through simulation-based education: An evidence-based approach A report from the joint JRCPTB/HEE Expert Group on Simulation in Core Medical Training Non-technical and human factors skills Aside from its clear role in enhancing the effectiveness of teaching procedural aspects of the CMT curriculum, SBE also offers an opportunity to deepen understanding and awareness of the importance of non-technical skills, such as communication and ‘human factors’ in healthcare delivery. Teaching human factors using SBE has the potential to help individuals recognise and devise coping strategies for dealing with challenging non-technical issues, such as task prioritisation in times of high workload, managing distraction and avoiding ‘fixation error’. It can also improve patient safety by ensuring a team-working approach. HEE October 2016

Educational Design www.gapssimulation.com Curriculum Mapping Specialty vs Team LOBs Workshops Programme Efficiency Programme Design We need to think about the inter-professional agenda and alignment across curriculums, and think about a team as a unit of success- pitstop analogy www.gapssimulation.com
Alignment Re-examination of speciality curriculum Complex competencies Constructive alignment (Biggs 1999) Learning objectives Scenario design Scripted triggers In-scenario learning We think that simulation is all about promoting ‘reflective learning’. We help learners to identify the gaps between the appropriate standard and the observed behaviour. And then help them identify what causes these gaps. Generally is is not much to do with knowledge and a lot to do with managing oneself and the environment. And that environment is a complex one. There is more than one patient, teams are multi-professional, families and ethical issues come into the picture, and so on… The foundation program curriculum defines a set of knowledge, skills and attitudes which include decision-making and prioritization of tasks, team working, communication with patients and recognition and management of the acutely ill patient. How do you teach these complex activities? Simulation is probably a good tool for this. We use an educational concept called ‘constructive alignment’, espoused by John Biggs, in which desired educational outcomes, the learning experience and assessment are supposedly ‘in tune’ with one another. It is an approach not without its critics but we find it useful for developing the whole educational experience. We script our scenarios using triggers to progress towards explicit learning objectives. This also requires faculty training and we developed faculty guides to facilitate this progression. We think this approach encourages in-scenario learning as well as enhances reflection in feedback sessions and, perhaps, later in the workplace. We also use the concept of ‘spiral learning’, familiar to most. Through the day themes are revisited and each learner experiences a second simulation scenario having had the opportunity to reflect on his or her earlier experience.

Draw from an extended repertoire of feedback techniques Be advocates for multi-professional team training using simulation and be able to refer to its evidence base for patient safety. Apply new skills in delivering mobile and fixed simulation training.
FERRETS FOUNDATION SIMULATION FACILITATOR GUIDE: GROUP A INTRODUCTION This is a brief guide to the FERRETS (Foundation Exercise using Realistic Resources and Effective Team Simulation) Foundation Programme simulation course at St Georgeʼs. It will tell you about the course aims, the key learning outcomes, the role of the facilitator and a step-by-step timetable for your day. The important features of the FERRETS programme are: it is multi-professional (the ʻfaculty nursesʼ and the student nurses are essential in achieving the learning outcomes of each scenario). it is complex (a key theme of the day is the development of safe and effective practice in the context of a chaotic environment) it focusses on team interactions (the F1 and F2 must be encouraged to communicate during their parallel scenarios) each scenario has a number of specified learning outcomes which are underlined by particular expected interactions within the scenarios. (Trainees are likely to achieve these as the scenarios develop. If they donʼt, they must be ʻtriggeredʼ by the faculty nurse, a phone call or the patient.) AIMS The FERRETS course is designed to recreate the complex experience of acute medical care in hospitals and help trainees reflect on how they work in this environment. It is not designed to be a clinical tutorial nor is it merely a ʻteam-buildingʼ and communication exercise. It focuses on the practical things which translate knowledge into action in patient care. Importantly, we aim to develop skills and confidence among trainees so that they can participate in professional conversations about practice. Opportunities for all trainees to provide and to seek feedback on individual and team performance should be exploited. LEARNING OUTCOMES By the end of the day, the participants should be able to: Explain how human factors are an integral component of how they deal with clinical problems •Explain how improving team functioning can improve safety and efficacy in clinical performance. •Apply the language of NTS to analyse own and otherʼs performance in group discussions Demonstrate an ability to plan and order initial assessment and management Identify what causes the gaps between an ideal clinical outcome and an observed one Faculty support and pre – loading as well as continual feedback on design and learning outcomes © Huon Snelgrove, Nicholas Gosling, Vaughan Holm, Greg McAnulty, GAPS, St Georgeʼs Advanced Patient Simulator, October 2011
