The University of Minnesota health has held this elite national inter-professional case competition since 2005.
Each year, a specific case study is designed to challenge teams in solving particular problems. Participation in CLARION leads students to a more sophisticated understanding of the healthcare system in which they will practice. Inter-professional teams of four students are composed of at least two different professions, and no more than two students may be from the same profession. The teams present a root cause analysis of a fictitious sentinel event to a panel of senior-level inter-professional health executives. Cases are analyzed by the team members only, and their mentors provide guidance, technical support. The cases are fictitious with real-world challenges relating patient safety in to health care system and how it might be improved. The highly complex cases, and incorporate triple aim issues.
Through this competition, each team member was reminded of the importance of inter-professional collaboration to improving health care and patient safety in a complex healthcare environment. Furthermore, the positive experience as an inter-professional team demonstrated that communication and problem solving across professions is possible and necessary.
