influence whilst your loved one is critically ill in Intensive Care
Hi, it's Patrik Hutzel from INTENSIVECAREHOTLINE.COM , where we
instantly improve the lives of Families of critically ill Patients
in Intensive Care, so that you can have real power, real control
and so that you can influence decision making fast, even if
you're not a doctor or a nurse in Intensive Care!
In last week's blog I've shown you "The 3 ways on how
to turn the tables in your favour and have control, power and
influence whilst your loved one is critically ill in Intensive
Care!" You can read, watch or listen to the blog by clicking

In this week's blog I want to show you "How believing in
yourself will help you to have control, power and influence whilst
your loved one is critically ill in Intensive Care"
If your loved one has been admitted to Intensive Care for critical
illness I bet that fear, frustration, stress, struggle, challenge,
the feeling of vulnerability, loss of control, the feeling of
powerlessness and the lack of influence are all things you can
resonate with.
The biggest imprint left on you and your Family are probably the
lack of control, the lack of power and the lack of influence.
Furthermore, with the Intensive Care holding all the perceived
power whilst your loved one is critically ill in Intensive Care,
you can feel a big void and a big gap between the perceived power
the Intensive Care team holds and the perceived power you and your
Family hold whilst your loved one is critically ill in Intensive
Care.
The perceived power struggle and what you need to do about it
Certainly, this power struggle is only perceived and a lot of it
simply depends on your mindset and if you are like 99% of Families
of critically ill Patients in Intensive Care you will simply never
have any control, power and influence, because those Families
simply think that they can't have control, power and influence.
Again, their mindset is holding them back and it's easy for the
Intensive Care team to drive their agenda and keep you at arm's
length so to speak.
Start with your "inner game" and inner beliefs
There is very little that you can change in the perceived power
dynamics between the Intensive Care team and you, your Family and
your critically ill loved one, unless you start with your
"inner game" so to speak and with your inner beliefs.
Those 1% of Families of critically ill Patients in Intensive Care
who have control, power and influence are able to change the
perceived power dynamics between the Intensive Care team and
themselves, because they simply believe that they can. And those
interactions between the Families who believe that they have
control, power and influence and the Intensive Care team are very
different from the start. The Intensive Care team recognizes your
beliefs and your vibe and they very rarely question those dynamics,
because they realize that those Families simply have control, power
and influence. It's tangible and it's real.
What's the difference you may ask?
Henry Ford once famously said: "Whether you think you can or
you can't, you're absolutely right!"
The bottom line here is very simple and if you believe that you
have control, power and influence in such a difficult and
challenging situation, you simply will have control, power and
influence and if you think that you don't or that you can't
have any control, power and influence in a situation where your
behaviour and beliefs can significantly impact your critically ill
loved one's outcomes and recovery, you simply won't have
any control, power and influence.
If you belong to the 99% of Families of critically ill Patients in
Intensive Care who don't have any power, control and influence,
good luck to you. The Intensive Care team will only tell you half
of the truth of what's really happening. And the bottom line is
that your critically ill loved one may not get the best possible
treatment.
If you believe in yourself, the Intensive Care team will take notice
If you belong to that tiny 1% bracket of Families who do have
control, power and influence your critically ill loved one and the
Intensive Care team will consciously or unconsciously feel the
positive vibes and determination coming from you and I bet that
whatever the odds are, you and your Family will have a much bigger
impact on how the Intensive Care team treats you, your Family and
your critically ill loved one.
Don't be paralysed by fear, frustration and by the perceived
power that the Intensive Care team holds and take charge of your
believes! Often the only thing you can control in such a difficult
and challenging situation are your thoughts and your beliefs.
To give you a quick real world example where I have been involved
in a few years back:
A man in his 70is was once admitted to Intensive Care with open
heart surgery. After the surgery he had a cardiac arrest(his heart
stopped) and he was resuscitated on an open chest for more than an
hour. He survived but with a very poor prognosis. This man had
previously suffered...
