What is the Patient Project? The World Health Organization lists ineffective handoversthat lead to patient harm as one of its High 5 patient safetyrisks. PATIENT addresses this challenge by using innovativelearning approaches with mobile devices to enable authenticskill development for the workplace.
Improperly conducted handovers lead to wrong treatment,delays in medical diagnosis, life threatening adverse events,increased health care expenditures, increased hospital
length of stay that impact the patient, their family and theentire health system.
The PATIENT Consortium is hosting a workshop on“Standardized medical handover – How to learn, teach andimplement?” at the annual conference of the Gesellschaftfür Medizinische Ausbildung (Association of MedicalEducation) in Graz, Austria.
The workshop will focus on several standardized tools for
giving a medical handover, with an emphasis on teachingand learning. Participants will also discuss feasible optionsfor implementing handover courses within given curricula.The Workshop will take place on Friday, 27.09.2013: 8:30

Patient ProjectThe PATIENT project builds on EUfunded work on developing handovertraining the FP7 HANDOVER project(FP7-HEALTH- F2-2008-223409).
Experiences and insights of medical trainers,experts in handover, doctors and nurses from the EU and beyond,
were utilized to design a learning environment, the HANDOVER Toolbox,conducive to training and learning around handover processes.
In the PATIENT project the HANDOVER Toolbox is combined with multiple mobile applications. One of these apps is theCLAS app a mobile application to structure handover processes between different medical departments as well as hospitals andGeneral Practitioners (GPs).
The PATIENT project seeks to further our knowledge of themerits of implementing highly innovative learningenvironments (Toolbox) that offer sophisticated ICT tools(CLAS mobile application), to enhance interaction betweenstudents, teachers, researchers and patients. We encourage theexchange of knowledge and ideas to increase awareness,understanding and pioneering solutions for this importantglobal issue.
The primary objective of the PATIENT project is implementingthe handover study module for undergraduate medicalstudents on a European scale.
The target study module will take advantage of innovativeteaching and learning methods to improve handoverprocedures. The module will combine formal, informal,problem and role-based learning scenarios in simulationsettings. It will take advantage of the HANDOVER Toolbox, theCLAS mobile application, and others apps as a commondenominator to standardize the handover training.

The PATIENT projectcontributes new insights andscientific knowledge by bringing together centres ofexcellence, hospitals, andSMEs from across the EU toundertake research andcooperation activities. Thespecific aims include to:
1. Share knowledge and
facilitate existing andnew European networksparticularly in relation toinitiatives in innovativemedical education
2. Encourage sharedinnovative practice inhandover practice.
3. Link research, education
and innovation.4. Promote research
excellence and outputs,enabling internationalresearch community andpeer-review.
