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

So, I was talking to a client this morning and the client told me that, their 85-year-old mother is in intensive care after cardiac arrest. She’s been there for seven days now. And just after a couple of days, the ICU team did a tracheostomy, which from my perspective and from my experience, after having worked in intensive care for over 20 years in three different countries, where I have also worked as a nurse unit manager for over five years in intensive care. It’s very premature to place someone on a tracheostomy just after a couple of days and telling the family that, “Oh, this lady will never come off the ventilator“. They haven’t even tried yet. And given that this particular client is in the U.S. they are trying to prepare this lady to go into Long Term Acute Care (LTAC). LTAC is not even the better version of a nursing home.
