What is the relationship between PERCS and IPEP?
PERCS stands for Program to Enhance Relational and Communication Skills. PERCS began at Children’s Hospital Boston in 2002 by offering innovative, experiential day-long workshops focused on difficult conversations in pediatric critical care. As PERCS expanded its scope over time to apply to a wide range of difficult conversations in pediatric as well as adult healthcare, the Institute was formed, in order to provide an institutional home and organizational structure to support these initiatives.
