Why the marriage of anesthesia and critical care makes sense.
Those 7 reasons I love about my job as a critical care anesthesiologist:
- šĀ Continuity of care
- šĀ Diversity in working environments
- šĀ Opportunities to learn from team members
- šĀ Opportunities to teach
- šĀ Critical care experience readily translates to the OR
- šĀ Freedom to drink coffeeĀ āļøĀ and pee [yes, this is a big deal because in the OR we cannot just walk out on an anesthetized patient]
- šĀ Contributing to care of pandemic patients What do you think of these reasons?
