RFA Lifecycle
The CRICO project created an important and rare opportunity for inter-professional training among team members working in the MGH Emergency Department. Staff uniformly agreed that the mere opportunity to learn, discuss, and debrief together in dedicated training sessions was very valuable.
Staff feel more empowered to speak up and we are seeing evidence of this during clinical shifts. Additionally, the training has been well received. Staff have been very outspoken in regard to the novelty of this course (i.e. “we’ve never seen anything like this before.”).
This page provides the steps and links to required materials for the RFA: application, important deadline dates, the review process and expected timeline for award.
CRICO’s grant team seeks proposals containing designs that further impact organization-wide risk related to patient safety issues. We encourage both young investigators and senior researchers to apply for funding and we support CRICO-member partnerships among potential investigators during our annual RFA period.
