Intensive Care Week 2024

It's (nearly) Intensive Care Week!

This year Intensive Care Week will be 3 - 9 June 2024 - a week to celebrate all the work you do in intensive care and maybe even a birthday for us too on 8 June!

It's our favourite time of the year as we get to see why you choose to work in intensive care, see where you work, who you work with and what gets you through your shift. We love seeing your pictures rolling in on social media and into our inboxes, and this year is no different!

Snap for #SOA24

As always, we want to see your celebrations, and what your work week is like on your unit. As something a little different this year, we want to showcase your pictures at #SOA24 - it's just around the corner!

Send in your photos of you at work - a busy day, a quiet day and everything in between, we just want to see you working together to deliver intensive care.

Tag us on social media at @ICS_Updates, or use #ICUWeek2024 or #Snap4SOA, or send your pictures in to us directly at communicationsteam@ics.ac.uk.
