Anaesthetic Training Update

ICM training within the anaesthetic CCT programme: update regarding COVID-19 cover

1 July 2020

Many anaesthetists in training were reallocated to supporting critical care services during the COVID surge for many weeks.  We thank these doctors for their outstanding contributions during this time.  Many will have gained important skills but this will have resulted in a loss of anaesthetic experience.  

We are keen to support the progression of anaesthetists in training and minimise the consequences of any reallocation, so we have put together some guidance for the recognition of those skills here.

Decisions regarding how flexibility is enacted should be made by the School Board in liaison with ICM faculty tutors and service leads.
