Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.

Today, I want to talk about the three reasons why intensive care units or ICUs can’t create a safe space for families in ICU. Let’s look at them in more detail.

ICUs are highly political, so it’s not really about patient care. It’s all about the politics in the ICU. It’s all about the hierarchy. It’s all about the promotions. It’s all about what the hospital and the ICU units want to achieve. It’s not really about what families and what patients want to achieve. And I can confidently say that after I have worked in intensive care for over 20 years, and I had plenty of time to absorb what’s really going on in ICUs. I have worked in many ICUs around the world, and I believe I have a very good idea that in most Western countries in ICU, it’s all about the politics, not about the patients and the families.
It’s all about money and bed management in ICU. So what do I mean by that? When patients in ICU occupy beds, somebody in the background, nurse unit managers, medical directors, hospital administration, is counting the dollars and looking at how much money is this patient costing them? Are they making money? Would they be able to offer ICU beds to other more profitable patients in ICU?
