This session highlights tips for a successful virtual meeting when emotions may run high, featuring a unique case study at the University of Michigan.

Meeting with patients and families in the setting of an unexpected outcome is critical to maintaining the principles of any robust communication and resolution program. Arising from the pandemic and the need for social distancing, limitations on traditionally in-person meetings has challenged the way hospital risk managers, clinical leaders, patients and families and others communicate under the circumstances. As a result, and many family meetings are now held virtually in platforms such as Zoom. Body language that reveals emotion may be more difficult to detect, and our own eye contact and camera postures may send inadvertent signals of disinterest or other undesired behavior to patients and families. 

 

Objectives:

  • • List three frequently encountered pitfalls to a successful virtual meeting with patients and families in the setting of an unexpected outcome.
  • • Identify best practices for maintaining thoughtful body language during virtual patient and family meetings.
  • • Discuss three lessons learned during a high stakes virtual patient and family meeting involving disclosure of a medical error and clinical leadership participation.
