Having been a nurse in both hospice and pediatric cardiac intensive care. I found this information to be very helpful and right on target in terms of caring for pediatric patients and families. I hope clinicians will take the time to watch this video and really integrate these techniques into their practice. It really does make all the difference in the world. Thank you for sharing this.
