ACCS - ANESTHETICS training in UK 🇬🇧 How to plan for Anesthetics training post.

[@LK_30]

Hello, Thank you for the information. It was really helpful. I am an FY1 and I am esp interested in intensive care. Do I also go through the ACCS anesthetics pathway?

[@UKDreamers]

Intensive Care Medicine does not have its own core training programme but instead accepts trainees from the following core programmes:
Acute Care Common Stem (Internal Medicine, Anaesthetics and Emergency Medicine) (ACCS)
Core Anaesthetic Training (CAT)
Internal Medicine Training (IMT)

After completing EDAIC exam, can we enter speciality training in UK?

Hi do you want pure Anesthesia or want to switch to Intensive care.

[@BK0408]

Thanks for replying.
Anaesthesia with ICM.

@@BK0408 - as a medic u could apply for ST3 Intensive care, but if u want to go via accs you would have to show commitment to anesthesia. Do some courses on airway, ultrasound, get some taster sessions.
Prepare well for msra, accs highly competitive now.
