Critical care refers to specialized medical care provided to individuals who are critically ill or injured and require close monitoring and intensive treatment. It typically takes place in a dedicated unit called the intensive care unit (ICU) or critical care unit (CCU). Critical care involves constant monitoring of vital signs, managing life support systems like ventilators, and addressing complications that may arise. The goal of critical care is to stabilize patients, support their organ function, and ultimately facilitate their recovery. Join us to learn more about the different career paths in critical care.
