“There has to be an element of trust first”: An exploratory descriptive study of caring for Indigenous Peoples, family, and the wider community in Australian intensive care units

These findings exemplify clinicians' desire to meet the needs of Indigenous patients in the ICU, their family members, and the wider community. However, striving for care that is culturally sensitive must be underpinned by an organisational commitment embedded in policy and action. Greater funding and alternate models of care that overtly embed Indigenous staff into ICU care teams are essential, not just to support our Indigenous Peoples, families, the wider Indigenous community, and the clinicians who care for them.

Abstract

These findings exemplify clinicians' desire to meet the needs of Indigenous patients in the ICU, their family members, and the wider community. However, striving for care that is culturally sensitive must be underpinned by an organisational commitment embedded in policy and action. Greater funding and alternate models of care that overtly embed Indigenous staff into ICU care teams are essential, not just to support our Indigenous Peoples, families, the wider Indigenous community, and the clinicians who care for them.
