EIC-ICU Toolkit: Enhancing Interprofessional Collaboration in the Intensive Care Unit
The EIC-ICU Toolkit is a series of three tools that are based on extensive theoretically informed qualitative research in a number of ICUs across North America. The Toolkit aims to address the related issues of interprofessional collaboration and patient family involvement in the ICU in an effort to improve the safety and quality of care delivery. These tools in this toolkit can be used collectively, as stand-alone activities, or can be incorporated into existing interprofessional team activities.
