This session will discuss how to utilize huddles as a way to identify root cause and reduce behaviors. It will demonstrate the right and wrong way to do huddles. We'll discuss opportunities; what went right what went wrong; root-cause/5-whys (triggers, resident day/hx, resident preferences, what clues led up to this); reportable and non-reportable examples; and how to use what’s on ahcancalED for mitigation.

Learning Objectives:

Explain the purpose and benefits of Huddles.
Demonstrate how to make Huddles work for the benefit of the team and residents.
Implement various types of Huddles in the facility.
Differentiate between the wrong way and right way to operationalize a Huddle.
