Spotlighted Event: Clarion Team Competition The Clarion National Case Competition is an outgrowth of the University of Minnesota's regional case competitions, which were designed and administered by medical students in their response to the perception of the need for interprofessional education and training in root cause analysis and practice-based problem solving. Schools from all over the country participate in this national competition. Each team receives the same case where a sentinel event occurred. The teams are then challenged to prepare a presentation containing a root cause analysis, as well as recommendations to prevent such events from occurring in the future. This year, the team made up of Jennifer Dine (Nursing), Sahil Hebbar (HMI), Cindy Thomas (Public Health), and Wesley Trueblood (Medicine) placed first in the competition! The University of Minnesota placed second, and Dartmouth College placed third. This is MU's second first place finish (the 2005 team also placed first). MU is the only school who has had two first place finishes. Faculty sponsors were Amanda Allmon (FCM), Robert DeGraff (HMI), Kris Hagglund (Health Profession), and Roxanne McDaniel (Nursing). Join CHCQ is congratulating these students on an outstanding performance. Pictured below: Wesley Trueblood, Cindy Thomas, Jennifer Dine, and Sahil Hebbar.
