Sos Bohart et al.

Summary: This study aims to explore the perspectives and wishes for patient and family-centred care (PFCC) among adult patients and their family members who have recently been admitted to an adult intensive care unit (ICU). Through semi-structured interviews, the researchers found that ongoing dialogue and a humanized attitude from the staff are crucial for the patients and family members. The study also emphasized the important role of staff in equipping the patients and their family members to navigate the ICU and supporting the family members in fulfilling their role as advocates and supporters.
