Program Description

The transition of patients from the intensive care unit (ICU) to the hospital wards is an inherently high-risk time and communication around these transitions is highly variable and unstandardized.

Target Audience

Intensivists, hospitalists, residents and fellows and advanced practice providers involved in transitions of care.

Learning Objectives

  • Describe and analyze existing threats to patient safety and healthcare equity during transitions of care
  • Describe ICU Pause communication framework and compare current practice to ideal practice stated within framework
  • Develop strategies to incorporate framework into current practice
