About our Role
Our Trainees in Intensive Care manage patients requiring intensive care, those at risk of clinical deterioration requiring intensive care, plus pre- and post-intensive care evaluation, whilst participating in the core training program of the College of Intensive Care Medicine. A limited number of rotations to other services for trainees looking for accredited training in Paediatric ICU at Sydney Children’s Hospital and ICU or Anaesthetics at Bathurst Base Hospital may be available. A limited number of rotations for trainees looking for accredited training in Medicine and Anaesthetics at Prince of Wales Hospital may also be available.
Critically ill patients include patients with life-threatening single and multiple organ system failure, those at risk of clinical deterioration as well as those requiring resuscitation and/or management in an intensive care unit. Intensive Care Trainees work under the supervision of Specialist Intensive Care Physicians, assisting to manage, diagnose and treat the disturbances associated with severe medical and surgical illness and the conditions that cause them. This may include management of deteriorating and seriously ill patients outside the intensive care unit as well as the intra-hospital transport of critically ill patients.
The Prince of Wales Intensive Care service is accredited by the CICM at the level of General Training (Gen 2-4), Cardio and Neuro, and is responsible for a general ICU and a mixed HDU/ICU, as well as a separate mixed general-cardiothoracic ICU.
