Definition
Medical Improvisation is the study and practice of
in-the-moment theater philosophy and
techniques applied to healthcare, to improve the
health and well-being of providers and patients.
Watson K. Perspective: Serious Play: Teaching Medical Skills with
Improvisational Theater Techniques. Academic Medicine.
86(10):1260-1265.

Medical Improvisation

Beth B Boynton, RN, MS
Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
Rationale
• We live in a time of disruptive innovation, in
which conflict is inevitable
• Learning and practicing Medical Improvisational
skills can help healthcare professionals deal with
unexpected developments and feel more
engaged in the present
• These feelings of learning and mastery can
improve patient outcomes, staff morale, and
workplace retention

Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
Rationale, II
• We learn more in our training about technical skills than
relationship skills, self-awareness, self-management, and
social awareness (emotional intelligence)
• Every healthcare interaction is to some degree
improvisational
• The practice of Medical Improvisation can help us become
more aware of the leadership styles that build cohesion, such
as coaching, visionary, affiliative, and democratic rather than
relying on command-and-control and pacesetting leadership
styles

Rationale III
• We need emotional intelligence in order to communicate and
collaborate respectfully.
• Healthcare is a Complex Adaptive System and Medical Improv
builds the skill set necessary for the best human dynamics
• People can learn different skills in the same activity, such as to
be more assertive or listen better.
• Opportunity to develop relationships when the stakes aren’t
so high
• Stress relief
• Less intellectual learning and more behavioral, like practicing
life

An Example of Med Improv in Dealing with
A Troubling Healthcare Dilemma

• “Doctor, this patient doesn’t look right, even though his vital
signs are normal right now.”
• “Yes, but I am in my office now and can’t see him”

A Healthier Alternative
• “Doctor, this patient doesn’t look right even though his vital
signs are ok”
• Yes, and because I am in my office right now, please ask the
Rapid Response Team to evaluate him for possible ICU
transfer for continuous vital sign monitoring and for a chest Xray, EKG, and arterial blood gas.”
• “Thank you, Doctor. I appreciate your taking my concerns
seriously.”
• “Thank you for calling me.”

Conflict Resolution Framework
• Set mutually agreeable time to discuss issues
• Prepare by writing behavior, feelings, consequences, and
proposed solution:
When … happened
I felt …
Because …
In the future, I would appreciate ….
What are your thoughts?

Moral: Strive to maintain data-driven, objective, I-messaging
format for optimal resolution

such as professionalism and improving the patient experience

Boynton cohn med improv webinar

  • 1. Medical Improvisational Skills for Harried Healthcare Professionals Beth B. Boynton, RN, MS Beth@bethboynton.com www.confidentvoices.com Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS ken.cohn@healthcarecollaboration.com http://healthcarecollaboration.com
  • 2. Overview • • • • Medical Improvisation Definition Rationale Medical Improvisation Examples Questions and Discussion Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 3. Definition Medical Improvisation is the study and practice of in-the-moment theater philosophy and techniques applied to healthcare, to improve the health and well-being of providers and patients. Watson K. Perspective: Serious Play: Teaching Medical Skills with Improvisational Theater Techniques. Academic Medicine. 86(10):1260-1265. Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 4. Rationale • We live in a time of disruptive innovation, in which conflict is inevitable • Learning and practicing Medical Improvisational skills can help healthcare professionals deal with unexpected developments and feel more engaged in the present • These feelings of learning and mastery can improve patient outcomes, staff morale, and workplace retention Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 5. Rationale, II • We learn more in our training about technical skills than relationship skills, self-awareness, self-management, and social awareness (emotional intelligence) • Every healthcare interaction is to some degree improvisational • The practice of Medical Improvisation can help us become more aware of the leadership styles that build cohesion, such as coaching, visionary, affiliative, and democratic rather than relying on command-and-control and pacesetting leadership styles Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 6. Rationale III • We need emotional intelligence in order to communicate and collaborate respectfully. • Healthcare is a Complex Adaptive System and Medical Improv builds the skill set necessary for the best human dynamics • People can learn different skills in the same activity, such as to be more assertive or listen better. • Opportunity to develop relationships when the stakes aren’t so high • Stress relief • Less intellectual learning and more behavioral, like practicing life Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 7. Dr. Cohn’s Brief Bio • To the best of his knowledge, Dr. Cohn is the only practicing general surgeon/MBA in the US who speaks, consults, writes, and teaches about physician-hospital relations. • Using real-life stories from his work in 43 states, he demonstrates ways that collaboration improves retention and clinical and financial outcomes. • His four books, Better Communication for Better Care, Collaborate for Success, The Business of Healthcare, and Getting It Done, have sold over 5,000 copies. • Dr. Cohn has been mentoring physicians in leadership development over a decade, finding that they enjoy learning from a fellow practicing physician. Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 8. Ms. Boynton’s Brief Bio • Beth Boynton is the author of the award-winning book, “Confident Voices: The Nurses’ Guide to Improving Communication and Creating Positive Workplaces”. • She is a national speaker and organizational development consultant specializing in communication, collaboration, & emotional intelligence. • She is a Per Diem RN in a LTCF caring for folks with dementia. • She is trained in the Professor Watson Curriculum for Medical Improv through Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and a student of improv. • Her videos, “Interruption Awareness: A Nursing Minute for Patient Safety” and Blog, “Confident Voices in Healthcare” have drawn audiences from all over the world. Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 9. Some Examples of Medical Improvisation • 20 year-old man with abdominal pain • KC family example • Beth’s examples with exit-seeking resident Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 10. An Example of Med Improv in Dealing with A Troubling Healthcare Dilemma • “Doctor, this patient doesn’t look right, even though his vital signs are normal right now.” • “Yes, but I am in my office now and can’t see him” • “I am concerned and wanted to make you aware” • Cardiac arrest several hours later Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 11. A Healthier Alternative • “Doctor, this patient doesn’t look right even though his vital signs are ok” • Yes, and because I am in my office right now, please ask the Rapid Response Team to evaluate him for possible ICU transfer for continuous vital sign monitoring and for a chest Xray, EKG, and arterial blood gas.” • “Thank you, Doctor. I appreciate your taking my concerns seriously.” • “Thank you for calling me.” Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 12. Pitfalls to Avoid • Angry Bird(s) • Systemic Avoidance • Event thinking • Sophisticated resignation • Current Mastery Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 13. Avoiding Amygdala Hijack • • • • • • Breathe Drink Clarification ? Timing ? Visualize a balcony “ your happy place • Excuse yourself to BR • Call an AM buddy http://northofneutral.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/ amygdala-hijack.jpg Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 14. Becoming a Trusted Leader • • • • Team player Responsive and respectful Understanding, listening, and learning without judgment Safe, approachable, someone who protects confidentiality • Talented, knowledgeable, competent • Executes: someone who gets results and honors commitments • Dedicated: someone who models the work ethic and timeliness Wong B. 2013. Heroes Need Not Apply. Bozeman:Second River Healthcare Press. Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 15. Conflict Resolution Framework • Set mutually agreeable time to discuss issues • Prepare by writing behavior, feelings, consequences, and proposed solution: When … happened I felt … Because … In the future, I would appreciate …. What are your thoughts? Moral: Strive to maintain data-driven, objective, I-messaging format for optimal resolution Lachman V. Breaking the quality barrier: critical thinking and conflict resolution.

Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS

Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 18. Lessons Learned • Medical Improvisation represents a life-long learning journey • It brings out the best in people and has a positive impact on every problem we have • Given that most healthcare interactions are unscripted and therefore improvisational, additional training in Medical Improvisation can give us a sense of growth and mastery Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
  • 19. Conclusion • • • • Participants must listen and speak up in order to practice activities Medical Improvisation optimizes in-the-moment behaviors Authentic engagement is a prerequisite for progress Facilitation, coaching, & reflection support organizational needs, such as professionalism and improving the patient experience • Medical Improvisation represents a way to be fully engaged in the present • It does not matter so much where we begin, provided that we: – start now – build a culture that supports reflection, inquiry, and dialogue – act, learn, and adapt Medical Improvisation Beth B Boynton, RN, MS Kenneth H. Cohn, MD, MBA, FACS
