Abstract

This article summarizes the development of critical care nursing in Sri Lanka. After years of development, Sri Lanka steadily progresses to establish critical care medicine as a separate specialty with fully trained Intensivists and nurses playing pivotal roles. However, courses of critical care nurse training are still lacking. Other barriers in developing critical care nursing in Sri Lanka include lacking career development plan, financial and policy support. The formulation of the Sri Lanka Society of Critical Care Nurses is helpful to fill this gap and to build up a local critical care nursing community in Sri Lanka.
