Target Audience
This activity is intended for primary care, pediatric, and internal medicine physicians and specialist physicians and advanced practice providers across a variety of disciplines.
Needs Statement

To address the professional practice gaps in delivering consistent, high-quality, evidence-based care across the Physician Enterprise and CommonSpirit Health, clinicians require targeted education that promotes the consistent application of evidence-based medicine. This includes training that supports the adoption of the CommonSpirit Standard of Care, particularly in clinical areas with high visibility, variation in practice, patient volume, and value. Providers need practical tools and frameworks to interpret and integrate evolving clinical guidelines into their daily workflows, ensuring that new evidence translates into improved patient outcomes. Additionally, education must foster strong interprofessional collaboration by emphasizing shared goals, clear roles, mutual trust, and effective communication among care team members. Recognizing the impact of provider burnout on care quality, educational initiatives should also address workforce well-being by promoting team-based documentation, role optimization, and workflow redesign to reduce administrative burden and enhance job satisfaction..


Educational Methods

Educational methods will include lectures, case presentations, and panel discussion.


Objectives

At the conclusion of the session, the participants should be able to:

  • Establish a CommonSpirit Standard of Care by prioritizing clinical areas with high visibility, practice variation, patient volume, and value.
  • Identify and integrate published evidence-based recommendations and guidelines into treatment and management to enhance clinical practice for providers across CommonSpirit Health.
  • Promote collaboration and networking among physicians in CommonSpirit Clinical Institutes and Divisions to support adoption of standardized care practices.
  • Develop strategies to integrate evolving clinical knowledge into everyday practice through team-based learning, shared decision-making, and continuous improvement.

Evaluation

Participants may be asked to complete a session evaluation.
