Abstract

The intensive care psychologist was strongly mobilised during the COVID-19 health crisis. His clinical practice is both specific, with regard to the situations of extreme suffering that he is led to encounter, but also plural, as he is faced with the intersecting vulnerabilities of patients, families and carers.
