Description
Developing a Protocol for Family-Witnessed Resuscitation in Trauma Care: One Team's Experience with the Collaborative Process
This presentation examines the process used to develop standard practice enabling family presence during trauma resuscitation. The collaboration process included trauma staff attitude assessments, family advisors involved in team discussions, Plan-Do-Check-Act concepts, and ongoing evaluation and data gathering.Infusing the Family in Decisions to Start or Stop Resuscitations
