Scenario

When healthcare teams avoid difficult end-of-life conversations

Our ICU team had a patient die last month where we all knew the family wasn't ready to hear what we needed to tell them, and we kept postponing the conversation until it was too late for them to say goodbye properly, and now we're all carrying this guilt but not talking about it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group shares responsibility for a failure of courage that had irreversible consequences for a grieving family.
