Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.
So, a lot of frustrations that families in intensive care share with us are things like, “The doctors are not giving us enough information and I don’t know what to expect.” Well, that’s great but you might have heard me say before that the biggest challenge for families in intensive care is simply that they don’t know what they don’t know. They don’t know what to look for. They don’t know what questions to ask. They don’t know their rights and they don’t know how to manage doctors and nurses in intensive care. And that’s exactly the challenge that most families are dealing with because intensive care is such a highly specialized area. And you need to know what to look for.
You need to know what questions to ask. You need to understand how an intensive care unit operates. You need to understand the agenda of an intensive care unit that goes way beyond the clinical issues at hand such as bed management, finances, staff management, and how that impacts what doctors and nurses are telling you, because there’s a much bigger picture at play.
But more importantly, if you want to know what questions to ask, I have written an article, “What questions to ask”, and that gives you a good overview and you can access this article for free. There’s also a video there, and you can go through the questions, and you will also see that they’re very specific questions and probably not questions you have considered asking in the first place. So, I’ll put a link below this video to that article and video.
So, that’s my quick tip for today.
Now, if you have a loved one in intensive care, go to intensivecarehotline.com. Call us on one of the numbers on the top of our website, or simply send us an email to support@intensivecarehotline.com.
Also, have a look at our membership for families in intensive care at intensivecaresupport.org.
If you want the medical record review for your loved one in intensive care after intensive care, please contact us as well.
Now, share this video with your friends and family, subscribe to my YouTube channel for regular updates for families in intensive care with case studies and also, once a week, a YouTube live, click the notification bell, and comment below what you want to see next or what insights you have from this video.
Thanks for watching.
This is Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com and I’ll talk to you in a few days.
