2:40 PM Case Study: Act Like You Care! Using Medical Improv Skills Labs for Better Patient-Provider Interactions

At our hospitals, we know our providers care – the question is, how can they show that care in ways patients will recognize? To be effective, patient experience improvement efforts must go beyond describing what to do and give providers concrete practice strategies on how to do it. To meet this need, Michigan Medicine’s Office of Patient Experience has developed trainings using the innovative teaching methodology of “medical improv” to boost providers’ communication skills with patients and families. This session will cover the program’s background, design, implementation, initial impact, and implications for expansion to promote an institutional culture that prioritizes the patient experience.
