Meeting Overview

Intensive care medicine has gone through some seismic changes recently, not least of which has been the birth of a Faculty and the development of a new curriculum with the option of training for a single CCT in ICM.

Consequences of this are that trainees are going to be invited to compete for entry into ICM at a far earlier stage than previously through a new national recruitment system. On top of this, increasing numbers of medical students and junior trainees are being exposed to ICM and are therefore considering it as a career.

The ICS together with its Trainee Committee continuously strive to create a cohort or well-informed and motivated trainees so are therefore holding this 1 day session for Foundation year and CT1/2 trainees who are contemplating ICM. The day will provide an overview of the new training systems and the application procedure and an opportunity to question speakers from the ICS and FICM.
