The NES simulation strategy for Intensive Care Medicine aims to complement current local and regional training by provide all national ICM trainees a simulation training programme aimed at meeting they curriculum needs throughout their training progression.
There are 4 courses that should be completed between ST3 and CCT. The timing and order that each course can be chosen by each trainee based on their specific needs and training pathway.–

This course offers an opportunity to perform safe patient transfer in a simulated environment.
Organ donation simulation course
A one-day course which provides opportunity to preform withdrawal of life sustaining therapy prior to DCD, brainstem death testing and challenging communications with families prior to donation.
Paediatric Emergency Management and Stabilisation for Intensive Care medicine trainees – PEMSIT course
A one-day course which provides opportunity to train with experts in paediatric care and transfer to prepare the trainee for managing paediatric patients in an adult hospital.
