This study seeks to understand the language used to describe the phenomenon of heavy resource utilization. Heavy resource utilization is a pattern of behavior where individuals return to the same social, public or health service at a rate that is higher than expected. While this phenomenon is common, language used to describe it is inconsistent across organizations and professions. Shared language is known to influence the effectiveness of team work and service provision.
