John Erickson

Dr. John Erickson and Dr. Matthew Clark, both hospitalists at Maine Medical Center, redefine Morbidity and Mortality conferences. They emphasize the importance of psychological safety in discussions about medical errors. By sharing personal anecdotes, they illustrate how M&Ms can foster growth instead of shame. They also provide strategic insights on structuring these conferences, engaging residents, and turning learnings into systemic change, all while nurturing a supportive culture in medical training.
