Mrs Yvonne Y. would have liked more support.

So I felt comfortable in the sense that I knew he was in good hands. I always had a good feeling there. I knew that it was a super hospital. That he had the care, that they were there 24/7. I wasn’t worried that he was missing anything, that he wasn’t. It was more about taking care of me as a family member in this difficult situation.

Experiences in the intensive care unit

With the technical and medical possibilities on intensive care a patient can be able to survive life-threatening illnesses. These experiences of critical illness and intensive care medicine are challenging for patients and families. Often experiences made on intensive care unit (ICU) can be life changing.
In small video- or audio-sequences we would like to illustrate the experiences made by patients on ICU and how they handled their stay in this critical situation.
Many patients share their experiences on intensive care unit and show how these experiences influenced their life.

We are curious about your story!
