Supported privacy : an essential principle for end-of-life care for children and families in the PICU

Article indépendant

BUTLER, Ashleigh E. | PASEK, Tracy A. | CLARK, Tara-Jane | BRODEN, Elizabeth G.

Caring for children and their families at the end-of-life is an essential but challenging aspect of care in the PICU. During and following a child's death, families often report a simultaneous need for protected privacy and ongoing supportive presence from staff. Balancing these seemingly paradoxical needs can be difficult for PICU staff and can often lead to the family feeling intruded upon or abandoned during their end-of-life experience. In this "Pediatric Critical Care Medicine Perspectives" piece, we reframe provision of privacy at the end-of-life in the PICU and describe an essential principle that aims to help the interprofessional PICU team simultaneously meet these two opposing family needs: "Supported Privacy." In addition, we offer concrete recommendations to actualize "Supported Privacy" in the PICU, focusing on environmental considerations, practical needs, and emotional responses. By incorporating the principles of "Supported Privacy" into end-of-life care practices, clinicians can support the delivery of high-quality care that meets the needs of children and families navigating the challenges and supports of end-of-life in the PICU.
