When I joined my hospital’s UPC (unit practice council) team, we wanted to put together a grievance package. Working in the ICU (intensive care unit) is often times very challenging. Not only is there a lot going on with each patient, but there are also a lot of emotions. When it comes to the end of life, there is often more we wish we could do as medical personnel.
