### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Dr Goitein's The ICU Guide for Families is written with extraordinary clarity and insight.
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on 1 June 2022*

This book is not only for the grieving families of the patients, but also for the medical community.  It helps to enlighten the ICU patient's family members, writing with striking clarity, compassion, honesty and insight. It can be read cover to cover or by topic, chronologically.  Dr. Goitein has presented herself as an experienced  and thoughtful ICU physician, as well as being a supportive loving member of the patient's family.  I felt she was at the bedside and at my side, guiding me through a time of great vulnerability. Her presence and wisdom spoke to me throughout the the book.  Michael Palestine, MD

    Read it before you need it
  

*by S***L on Reviewed in the United States on 3 March 2022*

Dr. Goitein has taken her years of direct patient care experience and written a brilliant guide to navigating the ICU.  As anyone who has had a loved one requiring this level of care can attest, the experience is often confusing and overwhelming.  This invaluable book explains, in easy to understand language, the who, what, why and when of ICU care.  By reading this book before the emergency strikes,  you will be better able to support and advocate for your loved one in their time of need.  As a clinical social worker, I am now recommending this book to all of my clients.  We can't all be fortunate enough to receive care from a physician as dedicated, intelligent and compassionate as Dr. Goitein, but thanks to this book we can all benefit from her wisdom and experience.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    help for a difficult time
  

*by R***M on Reviewed in the United States on 17 January 2022*

This book is written clearly and compassionately.  I think it is hard to be rational when you are caring for someone on the edge of life or death.  Dr. Goitein gives you the information that you need so you feel you have some sense of agency for your loved one.  The ICU is a foreign place for most of us and it is so hard for the professionals who work there to stop and give us all the guidance that we need. This book is a guide from an experienced professional when we need insight on our choices.  Don't hesitate to buy it for yourself or someone you know who is going through a loved one's ICU time.
