Research Study on Post-ICU Recovery

[lauhols]

Hello everyone, I am a Critical Care Physiotherapist doing a PhD to develop a post-ICU recovery service to help ICU survivors when they get home from hospital. I’m looking for focus group volunteers who are between 6-24 months after hospital discharge to share their experiences to help design the service. The flyer is above, please reach out on the email address if you are interested, I can send more information or schedule a call with no obligation to take part.

Many thanks

Laura Breach

ICUsteps have a large list of research volunteers and we normally recommend researchers to approach us once they have ethical approval. If you would like to do this please email us at [e-mail].

My mum was the icu patient - 15 months post discharge now. But if you’re after feed back I’d say 90 minutes is too long for her and she wouldn’t feel comfortable in a group. An ICU stay is life changing and very personal. But this is a great idea, there was amazing support initially, but she could still do with some sort of physio.

Dear Laura. I would love to be involved. I’m two years out of if ICU now and suffer every day with a myriad of issues that affect my daily life.

Kind regards
