Being a team member means watching for opportunities to fill in any gaps in team performance for the sake of a positive outcome. Teams are expected to operate as a unit, not a group of individuals. How can you be supportive?Ĭommunication Leadership Mutual Support IPEC Competency The nurse is trying to insert an IV in a newborn and the parents keep yelling at the nurse.You notice that she ordered a medication to which your patient is allergic. Your teammate is going through a nasty divorce and is very distracted.If team members have similar skills, how can they provide mutual support to one another to provide optimal patient care? What about different skills?.What is a typical reaction when team members feel that others are blaming them for team challenges?.How do you think those messages supported or criticized individual team members? Try to recall the exact words used when people encountered an obstacle.How did your team members hold one another accountable in this exercise? What happened if one team member struggled more than the rest of the group?.Being a part of the team sometimes means coaching others, helping them learn a skill that may be very unfamiliar to them. Team members do not all have either the same skills or the same proficiencies, potentially impeding the performance of the team. Provide an example of when you have had to go back to the beginning and start over with a patient.Īnalyze/Apply Evaluate/Create TeamSTEPPS domain.Provide an example of when we drop the ball in patient care.Translate the metaphor of each of you holding the strings to being on a patient care team.Imagine the object being carried is a patient to whom your team has been assigned. How did your team members respond to the differences in abilities? Ask a team member who felt confident, and then ask one who didn’t. Some team members performed better than others in this exercise.
What went well? How did you r team perform in the completion of these somewhat awkward tasks?.In those situations, collaborative teamwork may become frustrating, or fall apart completely. Under pressure, some team members may conclude that they have the best, or perhaps even the only, solution. In collaborative teams, we function interdependently with the rest of the team. string per washer 3 1/4" rubber bands, 4-6 pieces of 3-4 ft. plastic party cups 2.5" metal washer 4-6 pieces of 3-4 ft. Minimal Equipment - 2" foam craft balls, egg or ping pong ball 16 oz. These challenges may also be done as individual events.Using the device, stack cups in a pyramid with four cups on the bottom, and subsequent rows of 3 cups, 2 cups, and 1 cup. There, they find nine other similar cups, also open side down. Releasing the elastic allows them to carry the cup to another location. A cup is placed open side down, and team members pull the strings to expand the elastic, stretching it over the base of the cup. The second transporting device is similar to the first one with an elastic band in the center of the strings instead of the washer.
Team members must each hold a string and use the device to transport an object such as an egg, foam craft ball, or ping pong ball from one location to another, l owering the object into a 16 ounce disposable cup. The washer is a 2.5” metal ring with strings measuring 3 to 4 feet in length. Tie only one end of each string to the washer. The first challenge is to use a device composed of a large washer with 4 to 6 strings tied to it, one piece of string per team member.Each team is to complete two tasks in sequence to complete this activity. Assemble students into teams of 5-6 using some method to ensure diversity/interprofessionalism on each team.Evaluate the efficacy of those behaviors.Assess strategies needed to monitor the situation and support other team members during a high-stress event.Operate two rudimentary, team-based devices to accomplish an identified challenge.As a result of participating in this activity, learners will:
