Not Knowing Whether or Not Everything that Can be Done is Being Done! Quick Tip for Families in ICU!

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

So today, I’ve got an email from a reader who says, “I don’t know whether everything that can be done is being done for my mom in ICU. How can I verify?” That’s a great question actually. It actually came from Nikita and, Nikita here is what you need to know in a situation like that.

Anyone or for anyone who has a loved one in intensive care, you absolutely need to get a second opinion. You can’t just take things verbatim because often what you see is not what you get. Unless you get a second opinion, you can’t verify whether intensive care teams are doing the right things, especially with all the doom and gloom and negativity in intensive care that’s going on. You certainly can’t be sure whether everything that is being done is the best that can be done.

Intensive care teams, as we are exposing here at intensivecarehotline.com, don’t always have the best interest of your loved one at heart. Their interests are often sending patients out to LTACs (long-term acute care) or to hospital wards as quickly as possible or potentially withdrawing treatment and ending their lives because it’s deemed too expensive to look after them, whatever the case may be.

If you’re watching any of my videos or read any of my blogs, we’ve been working with many, many clients over the years where we have turned situations around. We have saved lives through our consulting and advocacy. I can say that now without any exaggeration because we know about patient and family rights in intensive care, but we combine that with our clinical knowledge, and we can give you a second opinion and then we can find out for you whether everything that is being done is best care and treatment or whether there is something lacking or whether there’s something missing.

If you don’t ask the right questions, intensive care teams will not even tell you half of the story. They will not even tell you half of what’s going on unless you know what to look for. The biggest challenge for families in intensive care is simply that they don’t know what they don’t know. They don’t know what to look for. They don’t know what questions to ask. They don’t know their rights and they don’t know how to manage doctors and nurses in intensive care, and that’s exactly what we help you with here at intensivecarehotline.com.

We help you get a grip on things when you have a loved one in intensive care. We look at medical records. I talk to doctors and nurses directly so that I can ask all the questions you haven’t even considered asking. Intensive care is such a highly specialized area, unless you’ve worked in the field for as long as I have worked in intensive care for over 20 years in three different countries, you’ll know what to ask. I know intensive care inside out and I know what to look for and I know what to ask. My team knows what to look for, knows what to ask. We can turn your situation around or your loved one’s situation around very, very quickly, like we have done with many other of our clients in intensive care.

So, that is my quick tip for today.

If you have a loved one in intensive care, go to intensivecarehotline.com. Call us on one of the numbers on the top of our website or simply send us an email to support@intensivecarehotline.com.

Also, have a look at our membership for families in intensive care at intensivecaresupport.org. There, you have access to me and my team, 24 hours a day, in a membership area and via email and we answer all questions intensive care related.

I also offer one-on-one consulting and advocacy for families in intensive care. I talk to you directly over the phone, via Skype, via Zoom, WhatsApp, whichever medium works best for you. I also talk to doctors and nurses directly, again, asking all the questions you haven’t even considered asking, but you must ask.

We also offer medical record reviews in real time so that we can give you a second opinion in real time. We also review medical records after intensive care if you have unanswered questions, if you need closure, or if you are simply suspecting medical negligence. We are there for you reviewing the medical records for you.

Now, if you like my videos, subscribe to my YouTube channel, click the like button, click the notification bell, share the video with your friends and families, and comment below what you want to see next or what questions and insights you have from this video.

Patrik
