"What Is Important to Us" Communication Intervention
The "What Is Important to Us" intervention is a photo-narrative invention that prompts parents to select a total of 1-3 photos that are then displayed at their child's ICU bedside representing: 1) who is important in our family; 2) what strengthens us as parents; 3) how we know our child is feeling well; and 4) what makes our child's hospitalization easier. Parents are encouraged to discuss the pictures with clinicians caring for their child. Clinicians caring for the child are sent the photos electronically along with suggested discussion prompts to use with parents..
