An Ambulatory Care Curriculum for Advancing Patient Safety

Abstract

The objective of this project was to develop and implement a seven module ambulatory care continuing medical education (CME) curriculum and to evaluate the effectiveness of this curriculum in facilitating patient safety. For knowledge transfer and adoption, each module focused on one safety concept, followed by clinical cases and take-home points. The dissemination strategy relied on the "train the trainer" model and utilized the governance structure of the American College of Physicians (ACP).
