Caregiver Perspectives on Provider Continuity During Prolonged PICU Hospitalizations: A Single-Center Qualitative Study, 2021–2022

Targeted interventions to increase provider continuity that consider relational, informational, and management continuity are needed to optimize patient outcomes and family experiences.
