ICU Patient Story - Olga Barry
In March 2023, Olga fell seriously ill, leading to a 10-week journey through three hospitals and ICUs. Diagnosed with pneumonia, sepsis, and a previously undiagnosed heart condition, she faced life-saving interventions, including a tracheostomy and open-heart surgery.

Throughout her recovery, she was moved by the kindness, patience, and dedication of healthcare staff, despite challenges like delirium, exhaustion, and navigating a strained healthcare system. Her story highlights the humanity and resilience within Ireland’s hospitals.

Barbara Egan, Patient and Public Interest Representative on the Irish National ICU Audit Governance Committee and founder of @IcustepsD is our final speaker today.

"A bed without adequately skilled staff is just a bed. We can't count an unstaffed bed as a bed. This shows the urgent need to address the training, recruitment and retention of ICU staff"...."All ICU patients who are not on a rehabilitation pathway have struggled alone since discharge for far too long". Barbara says that psychological supports and aftercare services are needed for patients and their families after their discharge from ICU. #INICUA2023

🙋‍♂️ INCREDIBLE ICU MOBILITY in intubated patient on ventilator & CRRT

👉This should be the standard of care in all ICU’s and hospitals worldwide 🌎

❓Does your ICU walk and mobilize intubated patients?
