The Improvement Mentality
and Patient Safety
Session Overview
Dr. Dan Henderson was a leader of the group of medical students who developed the national Check a Box – Save a Life Campaign that led to tens of thousands of lives being saved by driving adoption of the WHO Surgical Checklist. Featured in the 2010 Discovery Channel Documentary co-produced with TMIT, quality leaders tell the story of how the group of medical student leaders self-organized and deployed a program that medical students across the nation could use to drive surgical safety in their organizations. Now as a primary care physician at Massachusetts General Hospital, Dr. Henderson’s focus is a comprehensive, big-picture approach to the health and wellness of the patients he serves, particularly those with multiple complex or interacting conditions, and in coordination with specialty teams when appropriate. He will speak on the concept of the “Improvement Mentality” he teaches at the Harvard School of Public Health. Dr. Denham will provide a briefing on the “Take the Shot – Save a Life” program now being deployed to accelerate vaccination in the “movable middle” of vaccine hesitant groups willing to have a vaccination conversation.
