The "Party Planner": a novel approach to teaching complex material to all levels of the healthcare team.
One of the challenges facing staff development educators today is addressing the needs of a new healthcare team with widely differing education and experience. We developed a novel approach--the Party Planner--to teach a diverse healthcare team about a rather complicated practice model. The Party Planner addresses issues that are central in the current healthcare environment--using resources, balancing cost and quality, eliminating non-value added routines, and achieving critical outcomes.
