Introduction: Individual and organizational response to an adverse event is a key part of the life cycle of a patient safety event. Just culture is a safety concept that emphasizes system drivers of human behavior. We developed a learning activity for medical students to teach and discuss just culture as part of a patient safety curriculum.
Methods: This small-group, discussion-based learning activity was aimed at third-year medical students. Over 5 years, 628 students participated in it. The session had three components: a presession case-based survey, a didactic lecture, and a facilitated small-group discussion. Participants evaluated the session using our institution's standard learner assessment. They also took a postcourse test that contained multiple-choice questions relating to the session.
Results: On a 5-point Likert scale (1 = 3 = 5 = ), students rated the large-group lecture (3.2) and small-group discussion (3.2) moderately. Over 85% of students answered all knowledge items on a course posttest correctly.
Discussion: This learning activity provides an easy-to-implement case-based discussion to introduce the concepts of just culture.
