Description
Summary:Leadership drives quality, experience, and engagement. It is the responsibility of the organization to equip its leaders with ongoing education and professional development. This case article explores the development, implementation, and impact of an immersive patient experience leadership education course across a large, integrated health system.

Post-course surveys validated that experiential role play was a positive and insightful method to teach and bring heightened awareness to patient and family member experience.
