Resident and Fellow Engagement in Safety and Quality

Beyond educational and institutional requirements, there is a need for trainees (residents and fellows) to learn patient safety and quality improvement skills in order to achieve the ultimate goal of providing better patient care. Key steps to engagement include creating a safety and quality culture, supporting faculty development, and selecting appropriate curricular resources. Efforts to align the goals and processes of the graduate medical education institution and teaching hospital can foster a unified mission. Faculty must be prepared to teach and reinforce these topics on a regular basis. Both didactic instruction and experiential learning are necessary components for trainee education.
