Under the leadership of the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine, junior trainees from varied medical backgrounds are increasingly undertaking placements in Intensive Care Units (ICU) [1]. Unlike their predecessors, current trainees may have little prior training in advanced organ support (AOS), yet clinical responsibility may be high - a potential patient safety issue. Traditional senior-doctor led departmental induction may not rapidly adapt to the evolving requirements of current trainees [2].
