  • Training and enrollment information for patient safety champions and facilities interested in teamwork using the TeamSTEPPS method.
  • Learning opportunities for commanders, leaders, providers and patients.
  • Information about the measurement and reporting of events that could cause harm to patients and how to apply changes through documented studies.
  • Online DOD PSP and partner resources and publications.
  • An overview of continuing education credit-eligible learning opportunities offered by the DOD PSP.

The guide also provides helpful links and contact information for readers interested in learning more about the highlighted resources.
