Medical Frames & ActionsMedical Frames & Actions
Residents don’t have any power… and I can’t tell my attending what to do.
When you do airway, you have to use an AMBO bag. I can’t find one and I think this patient is not going to make it.
I just got out of school and everyone thinks I know what I am doing.

Judgmental Statements & QuestionsJudgmental Statements & Questions
• Can anyone tell us where John made his big mistake?
• Does someone have a clue as to what went wrong with this patient?– Setting them straight – I’m right – You are wrong– I know --- you don’t (essential failure in
thinking)– Truth------error (next time do it my way)– I know the answer- can you guess what I am
thinking? – “pimping”

Debriefing with Good JudgmentDebriefing with Good Judgment
• How did the learner make meaning of what happened
• Instructor “From what I know this happened in the simulation and this is where I saw the problems”
• Learner is also smart and well trained trying to do the best so… why did the learner take these actions? (they must have a good reason)

Errors are discussableErrors are discussable
• Mistakes are made and recognized and then changes happen
• Source of learning happens when you know what happened and how it can be different
• Make mistakes discussable • Enhance patient safety• Let learners identify their own

Debriefing with Good JudgmentDebriefing with Good Judgment
• Learner makes a mistakes • Debriefer is genuinely curious• Discuss what that looked like• Learners feel worthwhile and
intelligent• Respectfully insert your expertise• Frame changes can happen!

• The Debriefer should talk less• Try only asking questions• Get the learners to talk to each other• Make it SAFE to discuss • Be a facilitator; not a lecturer• Closed ended questions – as
appropriate• Open ended questions

Three Elements of DebriefingThree Elements of Debriefing
Reactions– Feelings– Facts
Understanding – Explore deeper meaning
Summary– The take home message

Successful DebriefingSuccessful Debriefing
• Genuinely interested – You see yourself as the good teacher not the good healthcare worker
• Pre-scenario briefing of expectations• Reinforcing good practice • Correct a limited number of errors• Avoid excessive correction (people only
remember 1 or 2 things - what is the take-home message?)
