Debriefing basics

Debriefing conversations are recognized as essential components of healthcare simulations to provide feedback and promote reflection. Even experienced educators can find it challenging to offer honest feedback for fear of being perceived as harsh. Various elements impact debriefing conversations, including: (a) the learning culture; (b) participants’ perceived psychological safety; and (c) the educators’ ability to facilitate honest discussions about performance. After this workshop, attendees will identify opportunities to strengthen their debriefing conversations by establishing challenging yet supportive learning environments, structuring their debriefings, and embodying an honest yet non-threatening approach.
