The Regional Paramedic Program for Eastern Ontario is asking you to save the dates of June 21st and 22nd, 2016 for the Patient Safety Education Program (PSEP), offered in partnership with the Canadian Patient Safety Institute.
PSEP is a two-day educational event that certifies members of inter-professional teams as patient safety trainers. Designed to help you strengthen internal capacity and grow quality improvement and patient safety initiatives, it is built on a train-the-training-team model that provides a peer-to-peer education framework.
With an emphasis on creativity and excellence in educational techniques, the PSEP conference is delivered by well-respected quality and patient safety healthcare professionals and educators from across Canada and focuses on:
– Applying human factors in the workplace
– Scientific methods for improving safety
– Organizational culture and dealing with change
– Understanding teamwork
– Moving beyond blame to systems thinking
– How to teach and implement patient safety
**For this event, Paramedic and Physician Master Facilitators have been secured to ensure a focus on patient safety in the field of paramedicine.** Specific adult learning methods are used to teach the content and to teach participants how they can teach it to others. The train-the-training-team portion of the curriculum is grounded in adult learning theory and embedded into social structures to facilitate behaviour change.
The cost for the 2 day conference will be $795 plus taxes, and registration will be opening shortly. I’ll ask that you share this with colleagues and friends across the country that you think may be interested.
If you have any questions in the meantime, please contact me at your convenience.
