Disclosure
• I had grant support to perform research from the Picker Institute and ACGME
• I currently serve as an external reviewer to the Picker Institute and their challenge grant program
Full Disclosure - My Research Focus
Then Now
Objectives
Introduction• Review what PFCC is• Review history of PFCC• Give resources for PFCC
practice• Show examples of
successful implementation of PFCC in GME and beyond
Research• Share some data from
my experience at Carilion– Mixed methods project
• Speculate on what we can do here in PFCC and in GME
Background Setting
• The PFCC movement is enormous
• There is no fixed history
• Multiple players on multiple levels
• The work of others is very humbling
• Just good medical practice?
• We have to start somewhere….
How can I get you to practice PFCC?
• Patients like it?• Patients feel
empowered?• It saves money?• It leads to safer care?
• It does not cost anything extra?
• Anyone can do it?
We are (I was 2008 – 2010)…..Carilion Clinic
• 500+ physicians in a multi-specialty group practice and eight not-for-profit hospitals.
• Specializing in patient-centered care, medical education, and clinical research.
What is PFCC?
• “Patient- and family-centered care is an innovative approach to the planning, delivery, and evaluation of health care that is grounded in mutually beneficial partnerships among health care patients, families, and providers.”
• “Patient- and family-centered care applies to patients of all ages, and it may be practiced in any health care setting “
www.familycenteredcare.org
Core Values of PFCC
• Dignity and Respect• Information Sharing • Participation • Collaboration
Core Values of PFCC – Picker Institute
• Respect for patient values, preferences, and expressed needs
• Coordination and integration of care
• Information, communication, and education
• Emotional support and alleviation of fear and anxiety
• Inclusion of family in care
• Transition and continuity
• Physical Comfort• Access to care
www.pickerinstitute.org
Core Values of PFCC
Belief oriented….Planetree Foundation• that we are human beings, caring for other
human beings• we are all caregivers• care giving is best achieved through kindness and
compassion• safe, accessible, high quality care is fundamental
to patient centered care• is a holistic approach to meeting people's needs
of body, mind and spirit• families, friends and loved ones are vital to the
healing process
Core Values of PFCC
Belief oriented….cont• access to understandable health information can
empower individuals to participate in their health.• the opportunity for individuals to make personal
choices related to their care is essential• physical environments can enhance healing,
health and wellbeing• illness can be a transformational experience for
patients, families and caregivers

Pause
Pause…. Are you saying…. • “I agree with that – why do we need to
hear this?”• “I already do all these things…I’m good”• Or are you saying “I want to do more but
the system won’t let me….”• “I’m to busy to worry about this…..” • Out of respect for my audience… welcome
your thoughts
Brief History of PFCC – Divergent Events / Efforts Converging on a point….
• Started with the Planetree Foundation in 1978
• Had many roots in pediatrics and HIV/AIDS population
• A system in need of major change – Institute of Medicine Reports and C.E. Coop
Brief History of PFCC
• The Institute for Family Centered Care
• Picker Institute for Patient Centered Care
• Center for Patient and Family Centered Care - MCG
• National Priorities Partnership– AHRQ, CDC, CMS,
IOM, Joint Commission and 20+ others
– Defined Priorities in Patient Care – many of which adhere to PFCC principles
www.qualityforum.org/about/npp
Brief History of PFCC
• Other Organizations involved with guidelines or statements– SCCM– ABIM– American Hospital
Association– American Academy of
Orthopedic Surgeons– Countless medical centers
recognized

Making it real…..
• Real examples from a large teaching institution……
Beacon of PFCC
• Medical College of Georgia
• http://cpfcc.org• Started movement in
1993 by including patients in design of Children's Hospital
• In 2002 set behavioral standards for all staff
MCG – UME and GME
Since 1993• Institutional
commitment to change clinical environments to PFCC
• Developed family faculty for patients and families to serve as expert advisors and teachers
• Foster resident involvement with family and patient advisors
• Create opportunities that allow residents to apply this to their practice
• Developed standards for how teaching rounds will take place
MCG – UME and GME
• Involve patients and families in faculty and resident recruitment
• Integrate patients and families into research efforts
• Teaching examples at MCG– MS Clinic– Behavioral Health– Cystic Fibrosis– Family Medicine
Clinic– Cancer Center– Peri-natal clinic
• Research– ePHR HTN project
Relating ACGME Competencies to PFCC at MCG in GMECore Competency PFCC Principles
Patient Care Forming collaborative partnerships with patients and families
Medical Knowledge Know or be familiar with PFCC literature
Practice-based learning and improvement
•Working with patient on chronic disease management•Working with PFCC advisors
Interpersonal and Communication Skills
•Engaging in a two way dialogue with patients
Professionalism •Introduction 100% of time•Timely information that is useful and accurate•Respect for privacy
Systems based practice Health care team includes patient and family
PFCC Success….in a clinical unit
Neurosciences Center of Excellence - at MCG: PFCC experience– Patient satisfaction 10%-95th%tile– Length of stay on Neurosurgery
decreased 50%– 62% decrease in medication errors – Staff vacancy from ~8% 0% (wait list)
MCG Institutional Improvement?
• Increased / Improved– Patient satisfaction– Clinical quality– Payer mix– Market share– Profitability
• Decreased– Malpractice claims
Show me the Money!
Featured in PBS Documentary – Remaking of American Medicine
Summary
• PFCC has a 30 year history at least
• At its deepest levels, we probably all agree with it
• Differences are in the execution
• Research exists• Success stories exist• Real improvements
in a medical center can happen
• It can not only co-exist with GME but also drive GME
Resident performance from the patient’s view: A novel prospective assessment of performance and performance improvement in delivering patient-centered care
A common motivating theme is some experience…..• Dr. Harvey Picker – Picker Institute
• Angelica Thieriot – Planetree
• Me – what got me interested?
Grand Parents and Parents
The questions I started having as I started at Carilion• Should doctors finish training without
getting feedback from patients?• If we give them feedback will they be
better in cultivating good communication and productive relationships with patients and families?
Medical Educators – Patient Care, Supervision, Teaching, and Feedback
The Problem
• As a young attending I felt a few pieces of information were missing as I went to fill out the ACGME competency based evaluations….
The Art of Feedback
• Make observations and collect facts
• Time and data dependant
• Need a framework to standardize feedback
• Provide a mirror image
The Problem
• It occurred to me during my 7th or 8th two week block…– when a patient fired
one of the residents I was supervising and
– then a nurse complained about a different resident
– then a patient gave the same resident praise….
• I was not really sure what was going on between the residents and patients when I was not around to observe them.
What to do?
• Spying?• Using a wire tap?• Video taping?
• Interrogating the patients?
• Sneaking around?
What to do?
• Patient care is complex and emotional
• Supervising residents is complex
• There are only 24 hours in a day
• But I need to know!
What to do?
• Sentinel events (firing by patients, complaints, or praise) cannot dominate the entire recorded experience all the time….
• How to empower and enlists the patients in the feedback process consistently?
The Resources
• What did we have at our disposal to solve this problem...?
What we had experimented with….
How useful? Learner Centered? Patient Centered?
Evolved into this….
Learner Centered? Patient Centered?
Opportunity knocks…
• We had problem / hypothesis
• Call for grants from OSP
• Struck me at the right time
• I had time • We had core team• We had resources• There was money up
for grabs
Eureka! Make a new mousetrap…
• Ask the patients anonymously about the residents using a survey
• Make it competency based
• Make it portable• Make it easy
• Distribute it to everyone
• Share the feedback with the residents
Make a new mousetrap…
• Most of all make it patient centered
Hypothesis and Aims
• Hypothesis - the regular use of the a patient-centered, core competency-based survey tool combined with specific learner centered feedback would improve the performance of residents in delivering patient-centered care when compared to the conventional practice of attending-only assessment and feedback.
Hypothesis and Aims
• AIM 1: To adapt the evaluation tool into a concise, valid and reliable instrument that enables patients assess resident performance on 4/6 ACGME competencies.
• AIM 2: To compare residents who receive feedback and coaching using the tool developed under AIM 1 to traditional attending-only assessment and feedback.
Picker Challenge Grant Program• Started in 2005 for
projects in 2006• 4 per year at

Scale Validity and Reliability
Reliability (consistency)
• Consistency in the ratings on any measure is important
• Differences in rating not due to chance
• Measure Chronbach’s Alpha across all raters and ACGME domains
• All were >0.75 indicating the scale and the raters were using it consistently
Validity (accuracy)• Assessing validity determines
whether or not the survey is measuring what it was intended to measure
• The instrument had built-in content validity
• Structural validity testing only found 1 valid scale with no subscales (patients and attending rated with little variability between domains (good in one good in all)
Sample Comments from Patients (over 300 written)The good• “I know this looks like we just circled
all 5's but Dr B. truly met all of them. Our family was REALLY impressed with Dr B. of all the doctors we have seen. He stands at the top.” +/PC/ICS/P
• “Dr T shows great leadership, he is a listener and very helpful to me about getting to the problem and ruling out disease and ordering tests and explaining special tests. He LISTENS. That smile also will take him a long way. I'm glad he was on my team of recovery. My heart goes (out to him).” +/P/PC/ICS
• “Very compassionate, caring and professional. Takes time to listen to pts. (the resident) explained everything to myself and family in layman's terms to understand. Excellent Dr. Wish him success in the world. Thanks for excellent care.” +/PC/P/ICS
Other• “He (the resident) seems caring
my only problem is its hard to understand his when he's talking. Otheriwise he seems OK. I've only seen him once since my husband's been here. Everyone else has been very good to him.” +/-P/ICS
• “No contact. I have been in the hosp for over 35 hrs in this 3 day stay and never spoke with this Dr. (written by wife)” - P/ICS

Sample Resident Comments
Name two distinct things you learned from this process about yourself or about how patients view you.
• “I thought the patients would be more concerned with my medical decision making”
• “glad to know I helped my patients so much – it makes it easier to work so hard knowing this”
• “Patients value giving input into care”• “Patient’s know what is going on with
their care”• “It was more positive than I
expected”• “the patients view me more favorably
than I thought”• “I am my own worst critic”• “Patients think I am a great doctor”• “I need to interrupt patients less”
What one thing will you commit to change because of this process?
• “more discussion of the plan with patients or family”
• “I will stop interrupting patients so much”
• “Maybe going back to round on my patients in the afternoon (to update them)
• “trying to better incorporate patient preferences into management”
Comments and suggestions?• “Get as many back from patients as
possible to assure accuracy”• “Worried attending physicians may
not be best to hand out the surveys may skew the results towards good evals to not get anyone in trouble”
• “Pleasant patients may get more attention”
• “Patients with multiple co-morbidities may not get a form as frequently and this could create bias”

Challenges for prime time use
• Curriculum• Making sense of the
data• Validity and reliability
testing in your populations
• Survey collection and distribution
• Finding meaning in the non-numerical data
Conclusions
• Patients provided regular feedback using the instrument and scales
• Patient appreciated providing feedback• The survey was reliable and valid. Scale
validity for one scale• Providing feedback during the year
improved performance of residents in the patients’ and the attending physicians’ “eyes” in several areas
Conclusions
• Patients regularly provided qualitatively rich and competency-based feedback
• Residents appreciate the feedback from the patients
• They feel it helps direct them for self- improvement in these areas
Implications for WakeMed
• Use these resources / ideas at your own level– Hospitalist face-
card• Do what you do only
potentially change focus – PFCC rounds on
Pediatrics– Stroke Rounds with
MD• Know who else feels
this is important• Ideas?
