Overwhelmed family in ICU waiting area

The reality of the ICU...

  • Families arrive overwhelmed: shocked and unprepared
  • Nurses are stretched thin: already at capacity limits
  • Clinical staff lack the proper tools to consistently and efficiently engage families
  • Hospital systems lack real data on ICU family engagement and satisfaction
