About this trial
The goal of this ethnographic study is to observe how healthcare professionals work together in an intensive care unit (ICU). The main questions it aims to answer are
* How do healthcare staff work together in everyday ICU settings? * What helps people work together in ICUs? * What challenges do staff face in working together in ICUs? * How have teamwork practices changed since the COVID-19 pandemic?
Researchers will shadow staff during their day-to-day work. Key staff members will also be interviewed about their perceptions and experiences of teamwork.
