Team training has been shown to improve safety culture, patient satisfaction, and clinical outcomes. Including risk managers in training on teamwork, communication, and collaboration can serve to foster a common language among clinicians and management. In addition, a measurement related to implementation in the health care setting may yield insight into the impact of training. Qualitative measurement may allow the researcher to delve deeper into how these health care facilities are using team training interventions.

“…As a result, TeamSTEPPS has been implemented in many U.S. hospitals. These training programs have been linked to enhanced staff knowledge, skill, and attitudes (Jones, Podila, & Powers, 2013;Sawyer, Laubach, Hudak, Yamamura, & Pocrnich, 2013) as well as improved clinical outcomes (Capella et al, 2010;Spiva et al, 2014). Yet, evidence suggests that TeamSTEPPS interventions are not universally effective (Armour Forse, Bramble, & McQuillan, 2011;Coburn & Gage-Croll, 2014;Sheppard, Williams, & Klein, 2013).…”

This study applies the PARIHS framework to TeamSTEPPS, a widely used quality initiative focused on improving health care quality and patient safety. By focusing on small rural hospitals that undertook this quality improvement activity of their own accord, our findings represent effectiveness research in an understudied segment of the health care delivery system. By identifying context and facilitation as the most important contributors to successful implementation, these analyses provide a focus for efficient and effective sustainment of TeamSTEPPS efforts.

“…Studies reporting the use of interprofessional practice interventions tended to employ team checklists [28][29], team briefings [30,31] or patient safety rounds [32,33]. Those studies that employed multiple intervention methods blended, for example, team-based training with practice-based activities such as the use of a team briefing [34][35]. The duration of these interventions ranged widely from a few hours of participation in a team training workshop [24] to practice-based interventions which lasted over a number of months [36].…”

Purpose: This narrative review aimed to scope the patient safety literature to identify interprofessional intervention approaches, the sources of evidence and reported outcomes.Data sources: Two major databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL) were searched from 2005 to 2015.Study selection: A total of 1,552 abstracts were initially identified. After screening these abstracts, 129 full papers were obtained. Further screening resulted in a total of 89 papers included in this review. Data extraction:The following information was extracted from each included paper: details on the patient safety intervention, study methods employed and outcomes reported.Results of data synthesis: It was found that the bulk of the included studies were undertaken in a North American acute care context. Most often, studies involved qualified professionals from nursing and medicine collaborating in hospitals and medical centres. Nearly half the studies reported in this review employed educational interventions, such as TeamSTEPPS, aimed at enhancing practitioners' competence of delivering safe patient care. Nearly a third of studies involved practice-based interventions (e.g. checklists) aimed at improving the delivery of safe care. Most of the studies used a quasi-experimental design and typically gathered survey data. The majority reported outcomes related to changes in professionals' attitudes, knowledge and skills. There were, however, fewer studies reporting changes in practitioners' safety behaviours, organisational practices or patient benefit. Conclusion:The use of different interprofessional interventions are key activities involved in promoting safe patient care practices. However, further work is needed to strengthen these interventions and their evaluations.
