Incorporating the video communication assessment for error disclosure in residency curricula: a mixed methods study of faculty perceptions
The VCA seems to be an acceptable and feasible tool for teaching error disclosure; this finding warrants confirmation and testing in other specialties. Faculty members expected the VCA would be useful for both improving poor performance as well as informing faculty coaching, although these approaches remain untested. To facilitate adoption, faculty recommended protecting curricular time for VCA use and effectively communicating with residents about who will review their personal assessments and how the exercise will support their learning.
