As the recognition of Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS_ grows, providers and health systems have sought ways to assess for treat PICS after hospitalization. Multidisciplinary ICU recovery clinics represent a centralized approach for care delivery after critical illness. These clinics provide care in a variety of models, depending on resources and the needs of a particular patient population.
