Slide 1 Cover Slide	(CUSP Toolkit logo)	The "Assemble the Team" module of the Comprehensive Unit-Based Safety Program (CUSP) Toolkit. The CUSP toolkit is a modular approach to patient safety, and modules presented in this toolkit are interconnected and are aimed at improving patient safety.
Slide 2 Learning Objectives	Understand the importance of your CUSP team Develop a strategy to build a successful team Identify characteristics of successful teams and barriers to team performance Define roles and responsibilities of team members
Slide 3 The Unit-Based CUSP Team	Understands that patient safety culture is local Composed of engaged frontline providers who take ownership of patient safety Includes staff members who have different levels of experience Tailored to include members based on clinical intervention Meets regularly (weekly or at least monthly) Has adequate resources	Team members standing together.
Slide 4 CUSP Team Members	Nurses (including Nurse educator, Nurse manager)* Physicians* Senior executives* Infection preventionists Medical directors Pharmacists Respiratory therapists Patient safety officers Chief quality officers Ancillary staff *Key team members	The categories of Nurses, Physicians, and Senior executives have a star next to them, indicating they are key team members.
Slide 5 Team Characteristics1	CUSP Has diverse local "opinion leaders" and dissenters Is willing to help to spread the intervention (Both) Has strong team leadership Sets defined team roles and responsibilities Maintains clear values and shared vision Contains mechanisms for collaboration and feedback TeamSTEPPS Develops a strong sense of collaborative trust and confidence Manages and optimizes performance outcomes Develops a strong sense of collective trust, team identity, and confidence	Venn Diagram depicting the similarities and differences between CUSP and TeamSTEPPS. CUSP teams have diverse local "opinion leaders" and dissenters that are willing to help spread the intervention. Both CUSP and TeamSTEPPS teams emphasize strong team leadership, set defined team roles and responsibilities, maintain clear values and shared vision, and contain mechanisms for collaboration and feedback. TeamSTEPPS teams develop a strong sense of collaborative trust and confidence; manage and optimize performance outcomes; and develop a strong sense of collective trust, team identity, and confidence.
Slide 6 Team Member Characteristics1	CUSP Maintain positive outlook Emphasize dedication to project aims Focus on a broader view Practice attention to detail Both Understand roles and responsibilities TeamSTEPPS Provide quality information and feedback Skillful conflict management Stress reduction for the whole team through better performance	Venn Diagram depicting the similarities and differences between CUSP and TeamSTEPPS. CUSP team members have a positive outlook, a dedication to project aims, and a focus on a broader view, and they are detail oriented. Both CUSP and TeamSTEPPS team members understand their roles and responsibilities. TeamSTEPPS team members provide quality information and feedback, skillful conflict management and stress reduction for the whole team through better performance.

Slide 8 CUSP Teams’ Group Processes	Effective Group Processes include Role Clarity Effective Team Communication Conflict Resolution Education and Engagement Leadership Buy-in and Support Norms	Effective group processes include role clarity, effective team communication, conflict resolution, education and engagement, and leadership buy-in and support and norms.
Slide 9 Team Performance	Inputs Environment Hospital unit and context Team composition Task design Processes Inside team Outside team Team traits Outputs Change in: Performance Attitudes Behaviors	Inputs into team performance are environment, hospital unit and context, team composition, and task design, Processes that are developed as a result of the inputs affect events that take place within the team and outside the team and influence team traits. Outputs from the inputs and processes produce a change in performance, attitudes, and behaviors that influence team performance.
Slide 10 Barriers to Team Performance¹	Inconsistency in team membership Lack of time Lack of information sharing Hierarchy Varying communication styles Presence of conflict Lack of coordination and follow up Misinterpretation of cues Lack of role clarity	Team member standing before a brick wall.
Slide 11 Stages of Engagement	Engagement: "To involve one’s self or become occupied; to participate fully and deeply" Active support of the project Engaged Apathy Aversion Uninvolved	An arrow sweeps upward and, starting from the bottom, contains the terms "uninvolved," "aversion," "apathy," and "engaged."
Slide 12 Engage Team Members Using the 4 E’s²	Engage (adaptive) How does this make the world a better place? Educate (technical) What do we need to know? Execute (adaptive) What do we need to do? What can we do with our resources and culture? Evaluate (technical) How do we know we improved safety? Senior leaders Team leaders Staff	The roles of staff, team leaders and senior leaders are interconnected when unit teams apply the 4 E’s. The 4 E’s require teams and their leaders to Engage, Educate, Execute, and Evaluate their involvement in the CUSP program. Gears symbolizing the roles of staff, unit team leaders, and senior leadership depict the interconnected and dependent relationship that exists between each aspect of the unit team.

Slide 15 Engage Physicians on the CUSP Team	Identify physician leaders Create an understanding of this role Listen to physician concerns Develop plans to address concerns Reward physician leaders Create a vehicle for communication Develop a plan for communications	The steps to engage physicians are listed in rectangles in two rows. The top row contains four rectangles: Identify physician leaders, Create an understanding of this role, Listen to physician concerns, and Develop plans to address concerns. The bottom row contains three rectangles: Reward physician leaders, Create a vehicle for communication, and Develop a plan for communications.

Slide 18 Engage Other CUSP Team Members	Nurses Executive partners Infection preventionists Patient safety officers	Team members standing together.
Slide 19 The Senior Executive’s Role	Facilitates improvement efforts Helps the team navigate organizational bureaucracy Ensures the CUSP team has resources to fix problems Makes rounds and meets monthly with members of health care team on the unit	A female executive positioned in front of the other team members.
Slide 20 The Nurse Manager’s Role	Supports CUSP activities Ensures safety assessment results are shared with staff Assigns project leaders to interventions Assists with scheduling executive partnership Manages local resources	A male nurse manager positioned in front of the other team members.

Slide 22 Psychological Safety³	Psychological safety is the degree to which team members feel that their environment supports the interpersonal risk involved in asking for help or learning from mistakes. Team members who promote psychological safety will: Invite input from all team members Encourage team members to contribute Promote active listening and learning from each other Ensure all team members are accessible Acknowledge the limits of current knowledge

Slide 24 Exercise	Create your team with attention to *who* is on the team. Carefully plan *how* you will act as a unified group. Do a "pre-mortem" assessment. If this project were to fail, why would it? What could the team have done to prevent failure?	Exercise icon
Slide 25 Assemble the Team: What the Team Needs To Do	Recruit a team lead, nurse manager, physician, and executive partner along with any other team members Meet with hospital departments (risk management, quality improvement, infection prevention) to ensure that CUSP efforts are integrated into overall hospital quality improvement and patient safety efforts List team member names and contact information on the Background Quality Improvement Team Information Form and post the form in a central location Use the 4 Es to ensure team engagement: Engage them in the process Educate them about their roles Execute the processes Evaluate what you did
Slide 26 Summary	The CUSP team will include health care providers, support and leadership staff. The "4 E’s" is a highly effective tool for recruiting team members Team members work together to identify barriers and address them as a group For teams to be successful, the roles and responsibilities of team members need to be clearly defined
