ER Edition — Team Ripple
Step Into Their Shoes — What This Game Is & Why It Matters
Same hour, six roles. Your choices ripple downstream.
What this is
Step Into Their Shoes is a fast, interactive way to feel the pressure of an ER shift from six roles in the same hour: Triage → Intake → Primary Nurse → Doctor → Charge Nurse → Discharge.
Every click is a tiny real-world decision. You’ll see how early moves either set people up for success or create extra work for the next teammate.
Why it matters
- Respect is the real currency. Small, visible help beats big speeches.
- Psychological safety drives performance. Clear, humble handoffs reduce mistakes and stress.
- Behavior is contagious. One good handoff nudges the whole team to do the same.
How to play
- Play through the same three events as each role.
- Choose an option. Get instant coaching and see how it affects the next person.
- Watch your Setup for Success bar and Respect Score rise or fall.
- Finish with Sarah’s review—your handoffs shape her experience.
What to notice
- Handoff Insight banner tells you how the last person set you up.
- Tiny narration (“Here’s what I’m doing & why”) reduces chaos.
- Right patient, right time beats “look busy” every time.
- Transparency with families calms rooms and protects staff.
Make it stick (tomorrow)
- Empathy Swap: shadow a teammate for 60 minutes.
- Friday Fifteen: ask, “What’s one thing people don’t see about your job?”
- Two-Line Assist: leave a quick note: “I set CT up—patient is ready.”
- Micro-Huddle: 20 seconds to align priority before moving.
