In this second Conversation Circle, we will focus on team-restoration and hear from two members of CPQCC's Family Advisory Council (FAC), a Perinatal and Pediatric Staff Chaplain from the UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital, and a Pediatric Palliative Care Team Physician Co-Lead from Kaiser Permanente Downey Medical Center. 

IP2023's September Conversation Circle will help you to:​

  • Review data on NICU-specific family advisory councils, spiritual care services, and palliative care providers
  • Identify ways to boost up NICU staff and family members (morale, culture, identity, spirituality)
  • Learn about how NICU family members feel seen, valued, and supported
  • Explore the role of a hospital chaplain, their touchpoints with NICU staff and family members, responsibility for equity and care, strengths and gaps, and cultural expertise
  • Explore the role of a palliative care provider, their touchpoints with NICU staff and family members, and opportunities for team restoration
  • Discover gaps in culture, identity, and spirituality in the NICU
