Johns Hopkins Disclosure Video
We are happy to partner with Dr. Albert Wu and the researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health to provide this video resource that helps educate physicians in how to disclose medical errors to their patients and their families.
Johns Hopkins has developed this 25-minute training video, Removing Insult from Injury: Disclosing Adverse Events. It features short vignettes of doctors talking with patients and illustrates realistic examples of challenging disclosure communications. This video can be a helpful tool for practicing physicians and for physicians in training, risk managers, and health care organizations.
Permission has been received by Johns Hopkins to stream this video. No other usage is authorized without its permission.
