@smoky, I applaud your efforts to inform staff at the hospital to help inform patients. It is quite possible that staff are not fully aware of PICS (Post Intensive Care Syndrome). The Society for Critical Care Medicine has resources to help develop resources for hospitals and clinics https://www.sccm.org/MyICUCare/THRIVE
@andreab, ICU Nurse Practitioner at Mayo Clinic, writes a blog describing PICS for patient, families, and health care professionals here on Connect:
