"It is so important to advocate for things that may not always seem possible. Getting to work with patients/families at the end of their life is the ultimate honor." - Lauren G Markham, MSW, LCSW, APHSW-C "In this work, one witnesses both depths of human suffering and heights of human transcendence that can inspire both awe and fear. At those times, I have found that surrendering my need to be "an expert" and instead, allow myself to simply be a "human" is the wisest action." - Kerry Irish, LCSW, OSW-C, FAOSW"--
The opioid epidemic has changed policies and practices governing opioid access and use, and little is known about how these shifts may influence the delivery and experience of hospice care. To explore key partner perceptions of how the opioid crisis has shaped hospice care, we conducted semi-structured interviews and focus groups with hospice administrators and providers. Because of the opioid crisis, hospice partners described challenges with understanding and implementing new policies governing opioid prescribing and disposal; increased need for misuse prevention and control activities; and decreased willingness among some providers, caregivers, and patients to engage with opioids, even when critical to symptom management or directed by law. Study insights may guide education and support for providers related to new and changing laws and help inform strategies to maintain safe and effective hospice care during public health emergencies like the opioid crisis.
This text is one of the first comprehensive resources on understanding and working with families in the intensive care unit. The text provides a conceptual overview of the Family ICU Syndrome, a constellation of physical morbidity, psychopathology, cognitive deficits, and conflict. Outlining its mechanisms, the book presents a guide to combating the syndrome with an interdisciplinary team. The text represents the full array of the interdisciplinary team by also spotlighting administrative considerations for health care management and approaches to training different members of the health care team. Family voices are featured prominently in the text as well. The book also addresses the complete trajectory of needs of care, including survivorship and end-of-life care. Written by experts in the field, Families in the Intensive Care Unit: A Guide to Understanding, Engaging and Supporting at the Bedside is a state-of-the-art reference for all clinicians who work with families in the ICU.
