Episode 102: Waking Up in the ED

102: Waking Up in the ED When post-intubation wait times increased during the COVID19 crisis, Julie, an ED nurse, took "saving lives in the ED" to a whole new level. She shares with us what communication and patient autonomy mean to her and how she is applying that to how she cares for patients in the ED. One nurse can make a ripple effect throughout an entire hospital system. www.daytonicuconsulting.com

Kali Dayton, DNP, ACNP-BC, is an ICU nurse practitioner and consultant on a mission to create Awake and Walking ICUs. She hands the microphone to ICU survivors and bedside caregivers to reveal the realities of ICU experience and patients' journeys after discharge. The big picture of sedation and immobility is discussed and we explore how to improve short and long-term patient outcomes. We shift the vision from transferring out of the ICU to walking straight home after the ICU. www.DaytonICUconsulting.com
