Family Voices in Intensive Care

Interviews with family members about what helped, and what did not, while someone they love was in intensive care.

Families often carry a heavy load while a loved one is in intensive care. We talked with family members about information, visiting, support and the move home. Their advice will shape a family welcome pack for the unit.

Recruitment is closed. If you took part and would like a copy of the findings when they are ready, email the study team.
