TeamSTEPPS Offers Training in Health Care Teamwork May 4
NSU’s Interprofessional Simulation Institute, in partnership with NSU’s Center of Interprofessional Education and Practice, is hosting its first community health care event called TeamSTEPPS® , a training program designed to revolutionize teamwork in health care.
It is open to health care professionals in the community, as well as NSU faculty, alumni and students. The training will be offered as a Zoom session on Saturday, May 4, and presents an evidence-based approach that equips health care professionals with the tools they need to optimize patient outcomes through enhanced communication and collaboration.
