Intensive Care Society (ICS)

They are the largest multi-professional intensive care membership organisation in the world. We welcome doctors, nurses, psychologists, physiotherapists, speech and language therapists, dietitians, pharmacists, occupational therapists, and all other allied healthcare professionals working in critical care.

For more than 50 years, we've supported the intensive care community by providing education, standards and guidance, policy, coordination of critical care research, leadership, wellbeing support, and much more, to ensure they have all the tools they need to deliver the highest quality of care to the sickest of patients in UK hospitals.

They have recently refreshed our strategy, which reaffirms our vision and mission, and updates our priorities to reflect the evolving needs of our community and the wider healthcare environment. Read more below.
