The TeamSTEPPS implementation in the form of training and technical assistance is to support the dissemination, adoption and use of TeamSTEPPS� by health systems and healthcare organizations, professional organizations, educational associations, educational institutions nationwide (e.g. medical and nursing schools), and Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs). The assessment will test the overarching short and long-term impact of the TeamSTEPPS program. The composition of the implementation and assessment sites shall be such that at least 52% of each type of the organizations or institutions shall receive the TeamSTEPPS� for Diagnosis Improvement Course. The two TeamSTEPPS (TS) components for implementation and assessment include 1. updated TeamSTEPPS curriculum to optimize patient safety and quality outcomes, and 2. the new TeamSTEPPS� for Diagnosis Improvement Course to decrease medical errors and patient harm.
