Care Training

Intensive Care Medicine (ICM) is a medical specialty where doctors from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds manage the medical care of critically ill patients. Training and continuing education for these doctors involves the acquisition and maintenance of the knowledge, skills and attitudes which allow them to manage the most severely ill. In order to improve and harmonise the quality of intensive care medicine, the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) is producing a distance learning programme: Patient-Centred Acute Care Training (PACT) for the training of doctors working in intensive care and acute medicine.
