The Training/Examination Programme in Intensive Care, Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists. 1. Training.
Unlike training for programmes in other countries which have published details of training programmes for Intensive Care Medicine, the training programme of the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists does not require certification in a primary specialty, although it is possible to combine training in Intensive Care and Anaesthetics. The lynchpin of the programme is the requirement that training can be undertaken in recognised posts in intensive care units which are approved by the College. Approval of the Unit requires evidence of appropriate supervision and teaching of trainees, sufficient number of admissions with a casemix suitable for the trainees' learning needs and an adequate level of staff and equipment. The Units are assessed by physical inspection by assessors appointed by the College. The programme includes a Final Examination in Intensive Care.
