Education
The BCSCCM’s principal goal is the improvement of critical care practice in British Columbia.
This is principally achieved through education. We have collaborated with educational partners to develop modular programs for physicians across BC. These courses are regularly scheduled in the Lower Mainland, but, due to their modular nature, can be taught throughout BC as demand indicates.
Currently, we offer:
Academic Rounds from the UBC Program in Critical Care Medicine
