IDE 45010 - Conflict Resolution & Communication Challenges in Health Care


Cr Hrs: 3
Session Length: 2 weeks

This face-to-face clinical rotation receives 3 credit hours, focusing on “Collaborate as a member of an Interprofessional team” as its Entrustable Professional . The course will feature some lecture, but mainly emphasizes learn-by-doing. Instruction will initially familiarize students with a “toolbox” of skills essential to conflict resolution and communication, then integrate those skills into a variety of simulation exercises based on real cases. Each simulation is followed by in-depth debriefing with extensive feedback. Three main modules are: disclosing adverse outcomes, errors and other bad news; negotiation; and mediation (serving as a neutral to help others resolve their conflict). Class attendance is essential, hence required. Reading assignments are moderate but important to in-class activities. Dr. Morreim is a Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 31-Listed Mediator for both civil and family matters, and is experienced in mediating conflicts ranging from health care to a variety of litigated conflicts.
