Irish Medical JournalAbstract
Schwartz rounds (SR) are a multi-disciplinary intervention that aim to support clinical and non-clinical healthcare professionals in their work. Temple Street Children’s University Hospital (TSCUH) is the first paediatric hospital to introduce SR. SR are a popular intervention, with numerous sites adopting them in the US and the UK. First introduced in Ireland in 2015, they were piloted at sites in Galway University Hospital and Blackrock Hospice. SR have since spread to 15 other sites across Ireland, including regional hospitals, children’s hospices and ambulance services. 2 Only one paper has been published on the topic of SR in paediatric hospitals. This paper hopes to highlight the potential for SR in the paediatric context by evaluating the views of staff who attended SR at TSCUH.Item Type
