Abstrakt: Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder. Care requires a patient-centered approach encompassing compassion, communication, and empathy. Despite concerted actions to streamline PSP patient transitions, the care is multifaceted and cause of concern. Patients with PSP undergoing transitional care are at an increased risk of undesirable outcomes, frequently endure poor communication, and encounter inconsistent care. Therefore, patients with PSP and families worry about the uncertainty in care, including who is accountable for the care and available resources. Through the three spheres of impact, Clinical Nurse Specialists can educate and assist intensive care unit nurses caring for patients with PSP /families, aiding in the successful care transition.
