Why is it so hard for healthcare educators to share what they actually think in a debriefing or feedback situation? Jenny shares the story of a participant in an anesthesia clinical simulation who helped guide her to be more transparent: “I’m often talking to providers on the worst day of their career, after a medical error has occurred. If I’m going to ask them to be honest with me about what they were thinking, the least I can do is be honest about what I’m thinking.”
Over the years training faculty in feedback conversations, we’ve run into many who ask, how is it helpful to tell my learner that I think they’re an idiot? But telling the person what you think honestly should not be your feelings or attributions about their character. It should be the impact of their actions, which exist at the level of concrete data.
Workout of the Week: Practice saying to people, “When you did x, it led to y.” One great feature about this workout is that you can use it for positive things! “When you stayed late to help me with that report, it lowered my stress level.”

New Podcast Coming Soon! Get Ready for "Dare to Be Ready"
Coming soon on the CMS Podcast channel-- The "Dare to Be Ready" podcast with Chris Roussin! Join us and a series of rotating guests as we examine readiness challenges across a broad swath of healthcare settings, and work with experts to solve their team problems in real time.
Our first episodes include getting Boston Emergency Room teams ready to handle diabetic patients who are "safe" to be discharged but likely to end up back in the ER without additional support, getting surgical teams at a peripheral hospital in Switzerland ready to declare a crisis and prepare to transport a patient they don't have the resources to care for, and much more!
Dare to Be Ready will premiere in September, so keep your ears open! Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Youtube.
