July 1 is the new deadline for the AHRQ challenge competition, which invites participants to develop innovative video content to update the agency’s TeamSTEPPS training program resources. Phase 1 of the competition calls for contestants to submit a written narrative on how to update a current TeamSTEPPS video in an equitable, culturally sensitive and health-literate manner. Ten contestants selected to advance to Phase 2 will develop replacements for existing TeamSTEPPS videos. Up to 10 prizes of $10,000 each will be awarded to Phase 2 contestants who produce successful videos. Winners will be announced by the end of 2022. TeamSTEPPS promotes effective teamwork, collaboration and communication in healthcare while focusing on strategies and tools to improve staff performance, patient safety and quality of care.
