Course Description
Intensivists deal with complex critical problems in the intensive care unit and are thus indispensable in all medical departments.
There is a strong demand for trained specialists who are able to manage sophisticated equipment and are readily available to manage critical patients.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine course is designed for practitioners like you who want to work in the technology- and resource-intensive area of medical care.
This course will help to improve the care delivered not only in the ICU but also to critically ill patients in other areas such as the emergency room, postoperative care unit, and disaster settings.
Live virtual classes are conducted by expert faculty throughout the course to complement the curriculum. At the end of the course, you will have a 2-week contact program in a leading institute that will allow you to work with leading intensivists and apply your theoretical knowledge to practice.
The Medvarsity Learning Design framework (Certificate, Advanced Certificate, and Fellowship) is based on Kirkpatrick’s model of e-learning and allows the systematic consumption and application of the content.
We at Medvarsity strive to equip every physician with the ability to fast-track their career and enable them to better serve the communities in which they practice. Join us, and let us impact healthcare through education.
