Core Tip
Core Tip: The rapid global outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 and the surge of infected patients have made critical care medicine resource on the verge of exhaustion around the world, especially critical care nurses. Therefore, a large number of non-intensive care unit (non-ICU) nurses play the role of professional ICU nurses after short-term specialized training. We propose a holistic care model of time-sharing management for severe and critical cases from our daily work experiences in this article, which will be conductive to improving the quality and efficiency of care and thus reducing mortality in ICU.
