“Life Wings” - Pilot training for doctors
Popularity: 6%
In (this article: Fast Company Magazine - Top Scalpel), there’s a discussion of a training program known as Life Wings. They talk about creating checklists for physician teams and looking at communication as a teamwork issue. No fancy technology. Just communication. This approach is very reminiscent of “standard work.” What if physicians don’t really need a new gadget on their belts? What if they just need to learn how to communicate better, for the heatlh of their patients?
