The implementation and evaluation of a family‐led novel intervention for delirium prevention and management in adult critically ill patients: A mixed‐methods pilot study
The family member's voice reorientation intervention offers critical care nurses a feasible, family-centred approach to support delirium care in the intensive care unit. Integrating this non-invasive tool into practice may enable nurses to enhance patient outcomes, reduce anxiety and strengthen collaboration between patients, families and health care professionals.
