It's "Lights, camera, action!" during the taping of the AAFP's patient-centered medical home videos at the College Park Family Care Center in Overland Park, Kan.
Jane Krieger, R.N., J.D., assistant director of the AAFP's Practice Support Division, headed up the video project, which grew out of a brainstorming session with the division's quality improvement staff members.
"The purpose of the three videos is to share real family physician success stories and to motivate other AAFP members to make the same types of changes," said Krieger.
The three videos cover the following topics:
- using patient registries to improve patient care, (13:02-minute MP4 file; About Downloading)
- patient self-management support (14:57-minute MP4 file; About Downloading) and
- using a team-based model to improve care. (13:14-minute MP4 file; About Downloading)
"We'd like to be able to measure the impact of the videos by going back to viewers in a few months and asking them what practice changes they've begun to make," said Krieger.
The videos run less than 15 minutes each and were supported in part by a grant from Pfizer Inc.
