Improvement)
• The ACGME Core Competencies
2. Demonstrate how the Healthcare
Matrix is used to improve the delivery
of care and education

Phase I
• Define specific
objectives for
residents to
demonstrate
learning of the
competencies.
• Begin integrating
the teaching and
learning of
competencies into
residents’ didactic
and clinical
experiences.

Beyond
Phase II
Phase III
Phase IV
• Improve the
evaluation
processes for all six
of the
Competencies.
• Use resident
performance data as
the basis for
improvement.
• Identify
benchmark
programs.
• Provide
aggregated
resident
performance data
for Internal Review
Process.
2006 Vanderbilt University Medical Center
• Begin to use
external quality
measures to verify
resident and program
performance levels.
• Involve
community in
building
knowledge about
good GME.

AND IMPROVEMENT
(What have we learned? What

We should call clinician

of their patients’ results.
Educate regarding
significance of MTB
in joint and how to
treat it. Related
issues such as
immune status,
infectivity.
Improved
communication
between different

should result in
more efficient

Key Safety Issues Identified
for VUMC
• COMMUNICATION
• TEAMWORK (especially relationship between
specialties)
• WORKAROUNDS (time stealer)
• DOCUMENTATION
• Unnecessary Variation
• Complexity of patients and limited clinic time
• Updated medication and problem lists critical for optimal
care
• Getting lab values quickly and alerts for abnormal ones
• Interpreters for growing number of non-English speaking
patients (system not based on solely on people)
2006 Vanderbilt University Medical Center
38
Closing the Patient Care Loop
• Start with diagnosis as basis for assessment
• Identify issues of care related to Aims and
Competencies
• Identify lessons learned and improvement needed
• Complete action plan for improvements with
accountabilities and timeline
