    Area of Science:

    • Medical Ethics
    • Public Health
    • Sociology

    Background:

    • The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the phenomenon of family clustering, where multiple family members contract the virus simultaneously.
    • Media reports and professional experiences underscore the profound impact of family clustering on patient care and family dynamics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify and analyze the ethical challenges arising from family clustering during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    • To propose actionable strategies for healthcare professionals and institutions to mitigate these challenges.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative analysis of professional experiences with family clustering in Southern California.
    • Identification of ethical dilemmas through case examples and anecdotal evidence.

    Main Results:

    • Family clustering impedes shared decision-making by limiting surrogate availability for incapacitated patients.
    • It increases the emotional burden on surrogate decision-makers.
    • Family clustering exacerbates health disparities and suffering for people of color due to higher likelihood of experiencing it.

    Conclusions:

    • Expanded advance care planning is crucial to address decision-making challenges.
    • Increased emotional support for surrogates and families is necessary.
    • Enhanced state guidance for unrepresented patients and increased ethics consultations are recommended.
    • Healthcare professionals must address systemic and personal racial biases impacting care and surrogate experiences.
