Real Time TeamSTEPPS
Manage episode 517898508 series 2465489
In this episode of EM Pulse, guest host Dr. Neelou Tabatabai joins Julia in a discussion with ED nurse and TeamSTEPPS advocate, Leigh Clary, to explore how structured communication tools can transform even the most high-stress medical and trauma resuscitations. Through a real-life story of conflict and resolution in the emergency department, Leigh illustrates how TeamSTEPPS strategies—like assertive communication, the Two-Challenge Rule, and CUS words—empower teams to speak up, de-escalate tension, and protect patient safety. Together, they unpack how calm, composed dialogue preserves respect, strengthens teamwork, and ensures every voice is heard when it matters most.
