Analysis of the interprofessional clinical learning environment for quality improvement and patient safety from perspectives of interprofessional teams.
The Clinical Learning Environment Review (CLER) program identified that resident involvement in interprofessional (IP) quality improvement and patient safety (QIPS) efforts was lacking and called for improvement. Interviews with residents, faculty, and staff were held to determine the status of IP QIPS in their hospital. Benefits (e.g., learning about other professions), facilitators, and barriers to resident involvement and a positive clinical learning environment were identified.
