Invitation to Create Curriculum
• AAP Section of Medical Students, Residents and Fellowship Trainees
• Need to address grief and loss • AAP Section on Hospice and Palliative Medicine • National call for participants/authors • Development of curriculum to address resident
grief and loss • Revised to approach through resiliency
Why Is This Essential?
• Pediatric residency incredibly rewarding time in career
• Yet, can also be quite demanding for housestaff
• Implementation of new work hours has increased workload intensity, and potential for emotional detachment
Why Is This Essential?
• Distancing (withdrawing from family) while immediately protective, may lead to personal disappointment and burnout
• Trauma of events impacts residents • Long term implications may include mental
health issues, substance abuse
Why Is This Essential?
• Being engaged with patients and families results in some of most rewarding experiences
• Relationships with families and addressing
suffering key to our profession • Engaged and vibrant pediatricians must develop
skills and cultivate mechanisms to maintain wellness by being present to human interactions in dynamic and mindful ways
Why Is This Essential?
• Two resident physicians in two different programs in second month of training in NYC committed suicide in August 2014
• Physicians have higher rates of depression, anxiety,
substance abuse and suicide compared to the general population – Pediatric residents have 20% rate of depressive
symptoms
Components of the Resilience Curriculum
• Part A: Understanding Grief and Loss
• Part B: Communication with Families about Critical Incidents and Life Altering Diagnoses
• Part C: Adaptive Behaviors and Coping; Mechanisms
for Health Care Providers
• Part D: Maintaining One’s Own Wellness

Tools developed for each module
• PowerPoint presentation- for self study or group discussion
• Learner and faculty guide • Cases • Reflections • Experiential components- - Videos - Articles, narratives - Scenarios- role play or standardized patients
Senior Resident Debriefing: Objectives
• Identify situations which debriefing sessions would be beneficial
• List benefits of a debriefing session • Recognize the need for debriefing and support in others • Conduct a successful mock debriefing session
– Analyze the event – Identify one’s own emotions – Inquire about perceptions of family and medical team members – Ask critical questions to help team members reach closure – Comment on how medical team member responses may affect patient
and family interactions
Reflective Exercise
Think about a patient care experience when:
– one of the trainees working with you had an emotionally challenging experience
OR
– you were in that situation as a trainee
Complete the journaling worksheet provided
Share with the person sitting next to you
Facilitated Discussion
• Would anyone like to share their story?
• If you were involved with the patient, did you experience the event similarly to those you were supervising?
• What did you take away from this experience?
• Did you or the trainee participate in a debriefing after this experience?
Background
Multiple national organizations have recognized and supported the needs of physicians dealing with grief and loss.
• IOM report: ‘‘When Children Die’’ • AAP Statement on Palliative Care • APA Educational Guidelines
Background • In a study examining pediatric resident use of
debriefing after a patient’s death: – 31% of residents acknowledged guilt – 74% of residents debriefed after at least one
patient’s death – Residents stated that they had debriefed after
30% of patient deaths – Higher odds of debriefing with:
• Inpatient death vs. ED death • Death of a previously healthy patient vs. death of a
patient with chronic disease Serwint J. One Method of Coping: Resident Debriefing After the Death of a Patient.

Debriefing Primer
Critical Incidents
• Patient death or sudden decompensation • Life altering diagnosis • Unexpected outcome • Uncertainty • Inability to control outcomes • Medical error • Angry family Lead to strong emotional reactions that have the potential to
interfere with ability to function, either initially or later

Critical Incidents During Medical Education and Practice Impact Us

Benefits of Debriefing • Taking time together to identify the personal
impact of grief and loss
• Increased mutual understanding and empathy among group members
• Acceptance of normal responses to distressing situation
DR Hanna, M Romana Debriefing after a crisis What’s the best way to resolve moral distress? Don’t suffer in silence. August 2007 Nursing Management 20
Benefits of Debriefing
• Validating experiences and responses frees clinicians to return to their work on behalf of others
• Healthy coping skills of some group members shared with those who coped less effectively
“We have an obligation as educators to share with learners how we have coped
with feelings of anger, anguish, shame or uncertainty in caring for patients.”
-Novack DH et al. Acad Med, 1999

A Framework for Debriefing
Welcome and Introductions
• Review purpose of bereavement debriefing sessions • Invite participants to give names and answer the question: “How were you involved in care for this patient and family?”
Factual Information • Review time of death circumstances Case Review • What was it like taking care of this patient?
• What was the most distressing aspect of the case? • What was the most satisfying aspect of the case?
Grief Responses • What have you experienced since the death? (Elicit physical, emotional, behavioral, cognitive, or spiritual responses)
Emotional • What will you remember most about this patient/family?” Strategies for Coping with Grief
• How are you taking care of yourself so you can continue to provide care for other patients and families? • Review grief coping strategies • Review available resources
Lessons Learned • What lessons did we learn from caring for this patient/family? Conclusion • Acknowledge care provided
• Review bereavement support available for families and staff Elizabeth A. Keene, Nancy Hutton, Barbara Hall, Cynda Rushton
PEDIATRIC NURSING/July-August 2010/Vol. 36/No. 4
Mock Debriefing
• Case Introduction • Case Discussion • Mock Debriefing • Debriefing Discussion
Mock Debriefing: Case Introduction
• First week in July
• Pediatric cardiology team
• 7AM: Katie, a 4y/o girl with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension presented for routine yearly cardiac catheterization
• Procedure performed by her primary cardiologist goes well
• Plan for discharge later in the evening or next morning
• Intern who admitted her in the morning, signs her out to co-intern for discharge once cleared by cardiology.
Mock Debriefing: Case Introduction
• 8PM: Pulmonary hypertensive crisis
• Patient codes and dies. No one from primary team is present
• Team is rounding the next morning
Mock Debriefing: Case Introduction
• Intern 1 • Usually on top of things and highly motivated • Appears a bit scattered this morning
• Intern 2 • Never saw the patient after receiving sign-out • Feels that if she had seen patient, she could have
noticed something, and perhaps this would not have happened
Roles for Debriefing
Roles for debriefing • Senior resident (leader) • Intern 1 • Intern 2 • Observers (use the skills checklist)
Practice Scenario
• Use the skills checklist to note specific skills • Consider what you will ask your group at the
end of the session: - What skills did you notice? - What went well? - What was challenging? - Feedback for the debriefing leader?
