Abstract
The intensive care unit is one of the most stressful and demanding work sites of the pediatric psychologist. The rapid changes in health status that necessitate stays on the intensive care unit often constitute an emotional roller coaster ride for both family members and the staff caring for their child. The Medical Crisis Counseling (MCC) intervention model is a useful approach to providing psychological support in the pediatric intensive care setting. A representative year's worth of consultation requests from the multidisciplinary intensive care unit of a large urban pediatric hospital is described and discussed in the context of the MCC model.
