working" and "Name 8 checkpoints for the correct procedure."
Another game: charades. We assembled an assortment of props to
demonstrate the correct way to do certain things at our center, like
how to use a fire extinguisher, how to don and doff PPE in a sterile
environment, and the
ergonomics involved
with transferring
patients from stretch-
ers to wheelchairs.
Staff members said
they'll really remem-
ber necessary details
because they were
presented in a new
way that made it a lot
more interesting. Next
time you're planning
to educate, fun and
games could be the
way to go!
