Transcending the Checklist: Understanding Adopting and Evaluating Shared Decision Making

Shared decision making is a key component of patient-centered care but can be misunderstood or rushed-through. What exactly is shared decision making, why is this so important to improving patient’s experiences and involvement in their care, and how can providers use shared decision making in clinical care? This webinar will feature an overview of the Bree Collaborative’s recommendations for Shared Decision Making as developed by a workgroup of subject matter experts. The speakers will discuss when shared decision making is appropriate, benefits to patients and to providers, and how to champion shared decision making within your own organization. This webinar is appropriate for providers of all types (physicians, nurses, clinicians, specialists), health system leadership, patient safety and quality professionals, policy makers, and anyone concerned with increasing use of shared decision making.

Speakers: Ginny Weir and Emily Transue
