This study is a pilot test of The Art of Medicine Series, a smartphone-based educational tool to improve clinician-patient communication. Investigators will enroll clinicians (residents, fellows, attending physicians) and family caregivers (most often parents) from the Children's Wisconsin neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Participants will then receive a series of links to short, animated videos sent to their phone by text message. Each video teaches best-practice communication techniques such as how patients can prompt teach back and how clinicians can avoid biased phrasing in delivering news. Over the 4-week intervention (the length of resident's rotation), clinicians will receive 15 videos and patients will receive 8 videos. Communication skills of clinicians and patients will be assessed pre and post intervention using validated measures and participants' engagement with the videos will be tracked with software in the website.
