Family presence during resuscitation (FPDR) has been widely endorsed. Nevertheless, there is limited information available on current education and training used to support FPDR implementation, including that of relevant policy. Understanding the current state of FPDR educational opportunities, policies, and practices across Canadian hospitals is crucial to advancing and standardizing these within our medical community. Our objective was to identify the current and desired state of education and policy on FPDR, as well as current practices and opinions of Canadian healthcare professionals. ⋯ While opinions are mostly positive towards FPDR, there exists a gap between the current and desired state of education and policy supporting it within Canada.
