Welcome to the Show

Good day and welcome to this week’s episode of the Nursing Show podcast for nurses, by nurses. I’m your host Jamie Davis and I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for checking out the show this week. In this week’s episode, I recently attended the NTI Critical Care Nurses Conference in Houston and interviewed Giang Huynh, RN, BSN, CCRN and Heather Gunter, RN, MSN, MBA, CCRN about their Clinical Scene Investigator (CSI) project in their ICUs at UC San Diego Health.

Their program encouraged ICU patients and families to write about their stay in a journal, creating an ICU Diary. The CSI program had the goals of decreasing problems related to post intensive care syndrome (PICS), improved unit pride and morale, and improved patient/family satisfaction. This increased referrals to the post-ICU recovery clinic. Here’s that segment from the American Association of Critical-Care Care Nurses (AACN.org) NTI 2017 conference in Houston.

If you want to get back in touch with me, please drop me an email. You can send those e-mails in to [email protected]. I love to hear from you and I make sure I respond back to every email that comes in. Send me links to news items you’d like me to cover, interview suggestions with you or somebody you know.

Also, a special thank you to Physio-Control for a special partnership supporting this episode of the podcast. That’s it. I will have more contact information coming up later on in this episode. Let’s get into this week’s news items coming right up!
