Professional Accountability Program (PACT)

Duke Health team members can access more information about our professionalism program here.

The DUHS Professional Accountability Program (PACT) aims to improve healthcare safety and quality by promoting a positive and safe work culture among faculty and staff. Specifically, PACT trains Duke faculty and staff to become Peer Messengers to help their colleagues uphold Duke’s core values (Excellence, Safety, Integrity, Diversity and Teamwork) in their day-to-day behaviors. When unprofessional behavior is reported, instead of seeking immediate punitive actions, Peer Messengers foster improved professionalism through awareness, understanding and support.
