May Is National Critical Care Awareness and Recognition Month 

Join the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) in acknowledging the unwavering and inspiring commitment of critical care clinicians worldwide! Celebrate National Critical Care Awareness and Recognition Month (NCCARM).

Turn Your ICU Blue

Intensive care unit (ICU) teams worldwide hold educational symposia, staff recognition ceremonies, or other special events with a blue theme. Bring blue snacks or balloons! Wear your favorite blue scrubs!

No matter how you mark the occasion, be sure to share your celebrations with SCCM and the critical care community using the hashtag #CritCareMonth.

Save the date: Wear blue on Friday, May 16, 2025!
