Institute for Healthcare Improvement – Case Studies

Format(s): Reference

The Institute for Healthcare Improvement has developed a number of case studies presenting problematic scenarios in the healthcare setting. Their purpose is to demonstrate to learners what changes to healthcare processes can be made in order to promote better outcomes. Each case study has specific learning objectives, discussion questions and corresponding facilitator and student handouts. Although these case studies are primarily focused on medical students and aren’t intrinsically interprofessional, students from other disciplines may find some of them valuable. The IPE Facilitator Guide can be referred to for supplementary strategies to lead case study discussions.
