Intensive Care Medicine ST3

Intensive Care Medicine in Yorkshire and the Humber

Intensive Care Medicine (ICM) is an exciting and dynamic specialty with the responsibility for caring for the most critically ill patients in hospital. Whilst other medical specialties deal exclusively with specific organs or body systems, ICM encompasses the entire spectrum of medical and surgical pathology. An ICM doctor is able to provide advanced organ support during critical illness and is responsible for coordinating the care of patients on the ICU. ICM is high tech, life saving care that underpins and interacts with all other areas of the hospital. 

It is now possible to train exclusively in ICM in addition to combining it with another specialty. This training programme offers dual training opportunities in

  • Acute Medicine
  • Anaesthesia
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Renal Medicine
  • Respiratory Medicine

Application to the partner specialty is through competitive national interviews. For more information about dual training, please visit the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine website.

In order to assess your suitability for this training programme please refer to the national Person Specifications on the Specialty Training website.

The expected duration of a single CCT ICM programme is five years subject to satisfactory progression. Dual CCTs programmes will inevitably extend your training; the length will depend on your previous experience and chosen partner specialty, though 8.5 years is the common indicative minimum duration.

The actual duration of training may depend on the circumstances of individual trainees.
