Abstract

The purpose of this presentation is to help Critical Care nurses be aware of the expectations of communication and performance in the different roles they are in as a bedside nurse. During meetings with the Critical Care staff nurses, it was identified that not all nurses have an easy time knowing what the expectations are in the different roles they hold. One on one coaching was done to help nurses learn methods to professionally convey expectations, and struggles still remained. This presentation is an opportunity for all staff to share their expectations in an open forum where there was anonymity and time for open discussion for the information shared. True Collaboration is one of the six essential standards identified by the American Association of Critical Care nurses. The responsibilities of the individual to achieve True Collaboration were reviewed when the project was introduced to the staff nurses.
