TeamSTEPPS Master Training
Teamwork, Communication and Perinatal Safety
Effective teamwork and communication are crucial for high-quality patient care. According to a Joint Commission review, poor communication caused 48% of maternal sentinel events and 70% of neonatal sentinel events between 2004 and 2014.
Key issues include overreliance on technology and inadequate handoff practices, which often lead to errors. Standardized communication strategies can improve teamwork and enhance patient safety.

TeamSTEPPS (Team Strategies and Tools to Enhance Performance and Patient Safety) is a program designed to improve communication and teamwork in healthcare settings. It includes training for involving patients and family caregivers in care discussions and emphasizes the importance of a diverse workforce to build trust and improve communication.
