    • Medicine

Jacqueline Kruser, MD MS is an assistant professor of medicine in the Division of Allergy, Pulmonary & Critical Care at the University of Wisconsin. In her lecture today, she talks about the role of the language in the intensive care unit, using examples of specific phrases such as “goals of care”.  What does that mean when we say it to each other as providers and how does our meaning differ when we say it to families?
