Our Mission

The Dayton ICU Consulting team is dedicated to improving ICU patient care and creating better work environments for ICU staff. We do this by working to humanize intensive care units through the implementation of evidence-based practices for intubation, sedation, and early mobility in the ICU, as well as the application of modernized methods of prevention and management of delirium in the ICU.

We promote a more cost-effective, humane form of care, and inspire the creation of an environment where patients aren’t just more likely to survive, but also thriving, as well. We dream of the day when ICUs will be characterized by less compartmentalization, more interdisciplinary collaboration, improved communication between clinicians, patients, and their families, and the implementation of the Awake and Walking ICU method as a standardized process of care.

Patient in ICU awake and on ventilator

The Walking Home From The ICU podcast has been transformational in helping to change the culture in the small community ICU where I work. I am an occupational therapist and have wanted to implement early mobility in our facility for several years now. It wasn’t until I started listening to this podcast that this “want” became more than that. It became a “must.”

The podcast has made it so easy to share the passion I have gained. The stories of the patients and the knowledge of practitioners sharing their clinical practice advice are so valuable.

Kali Dayton has shared with our team her knowledge through a video format as well. She was able to answer nursing related questions that I, as an OT, haven’t been able to answer. She is professional and willing to share her knowledge and passion in order to make changes in the ICU community around the world.
