#WeAreCritical in the fight against COVID-19
The Intensive Care Society represents your Intensive Care team heroes who are critical in the fight against COVID-19.
Story
Donate today to support your Intensive Care heroes!
The emergence of COVID-19 as a global pandemic is impacting all of us in an unprecedented manner - and the Intensive Care team is critical in this unpredictable time ahead.
Now more than ever, we all need to come together.
The Intensive Care team is the safety net of the hospital - we care for the sickest patients by providing vital organ support. Up to 11% of those diagnosed with COVID-19 will need intensive care.
Whilst our Intensive Care heroes are at the frontline of this disease, we at the Intensive Care Society have got their back!
Your donations will enable us to provide digital platorms to support the relaying of critical care guidance and information on the management of patients with COVID-19; resources to help sustain wellbeing through this unprecedented time and beyond; care packages to units and more!
COVID-19 is a priority to all in Critical Care. As the only multi-professional Critical Care charity in the UK, we are best placed to address the needs of our heroes.
Here are some examples of what the Society has done already:
-Created an emergency national committee dedicated to providing support for patients and staff through COVID-19
-Produced resources for patients and staff to guide daily treatment and recovery
-Produced specific COVID-19 self-care posters to complement our existing wellbeing library.
But we MUST do more
