Disclosure Statement
I do not have any relevant
financial relationships with any
commercial interests to disclose.
A few questions to get us started
 Do you have a script that drives your
care transition from ICU  floor
A. Yes
B. No
Question #2
 Do you have a script that drives your
care transition from floor to home?
A. Yes
B. No
Question #3
 Do you have a “transition of care
meeting” with the care team and the
family prior to transferring?
A. Yes
B. No
Question #4
 Who calls the pediatrician prior to
discharge?
A. No one does
B. Attending
C. Fellow
D. Nurse practitioner
Question #5
 Is the family aware of “milestones” to
be met prior to transitioning?
A. Yes
B.
No
Do you ever feel Stuck in this game?
 Every time we make strides forward we find
ourselves sliding backwards.
 How can we make it more predictable than a
roll of the dice?
How can we feel less like this? We know we cannot
read into the future –
but we have to
prepare for it.
We try so hard to “get it
right”, always feeling under
pressure, hoping at the final
hour it does not all blow up
And more like this?
Shift our thinking:
Strategic, collaborative,
shared goals,
multidisciplinary
Great idea – but how do we get
there?
 What do you use to coordinate care
transitions?
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Journey board
Scripted handoffs
We rely on one person to take care of this
No one does this
I’m not sure how it happens
It’s charted – why the extra step?
 Its like story cubes – we
all use each of the 6 sided
dice to tell the patient’s
story.
 No one tells the story in
quite the same way.
 The end user is the reader
of the story.
Critical to shift your thinking
 Partner with entire care team Multidisciplinary
 Engage all of your resources (social work, discharge
planner, community resources, nursing staff)
 Parent/family engagement
 Critical to success
 Secondary caregiver identified and trained
 Teach back method
 Transparency of goals
What needs to be communicated?


Problem list – active and resolved
Medications
Patient’s current status and most recent changes
Procedures (and results)
 Read the op note/cath report/echo yourself
 Consulted services
 Family update
 Understanding, availability, concerns

How will I do this at
home??
How do we get out
of the ICU?!
Strategic
Communication
is Essential
Who will take care of us
when we leave?
Overwhelming? I think not…
 Engages parents even before admission
 Teach back method builds confidence
 Listen to how they explain their child to other family
members – a window into their understanding
 Satisfies list-makers and slackers alike!
 Ensures everyone receives the same teaching.
 Visual reminders
 Always, always state – AT LEAST 24 hours of care
For Parents
 Reassure them that bumps in the road are to
be expected - at EVERY transition point
 Hands on practice, practice, practice is
essential
 Encourage them to ask questions
 Knowledge is power – be clear in your
communication
For team members


Don’t be afraid to ask for clarity
Don’t accept “I’ve only taken care of them today”
Know what you want to know
Ask where the parents are on their journey
Face to face bedside hand off is best
Transition of care meetings are essential
Minimize free text options in charting
Know the integral part you play
Take Home Points



Give careful thought to care transitions
Be transparent
Be sure the story you are writing is not a cliffhanger!
Supply the next caregiver with tools to succeed –
whether that is the next provider or the parent or the
pediatrician
 The “system” you implement should run without you
