1003_SHSO_Clinical Debriefing for Medical Educators_Live

July 22, 2026

Description: 

This faculty development course addresses the gap between the recognized value of structured debriefing and its inconsistent use in inpatient GME settings at Sutter Health. Designed for busy clinical educators, the course equips faculty with efficient, evidence-informed frameworks to integrate brief, high-yield debriefings into daily workflows. Participants will learn how to foster psychological safety, promote reflective practice, and enhance clinical reasoning and patient safety through practical, time-conscious debriefing techniques. Emphasis is placed on real-world application, enabling faculty to confidently lead structured debriefs even in time-constrained environments.
