Resource Optimization in the Intensive Care Unit Setting

The intervention consists of providing educational content for all ICU care providers concerning building staff knowledge surrounding methods to facilitate cost-effective and evidence-based decision-making about patient care (including tests, treatments, and procedures). The first intervention is an educational workshop to increase staffs' awareness of the current Choosing Wisely Canada Critical Care strategies and recommendations to facilitate cost-effective and evidence-based decision-making about patient care (including tests, treatments, and procedures).

This initiative will focus solely on the nurse subgroup and concerns schedule optimization to ensure the presence of the appropriate number of nurses per shift, thereby reducing stress, burnout and limiting the need for overtime.
