Site Maintenance October 29 – November 5
SCCM is currently performing major updates to its digital infrastructure to better serve members. Any website that requires an SCCM Customer ID and password to log in is currently unavailable until November 5, 2024. SCCM Customer Service and staff have limited capabilities, and response times will be longer during this time.
The Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) monitors current events and regularly activates its crisis response plan. The plan includes releasing complimentary education and resources to help clinicians treat critically ill and injured patients, respond to patient surges, and implement resource allocation strategies. Materials are specific to the emergency at hand, including hurricanes, earthquakes, terrorist attacks, and other man-made and natural disasters.
SCCM has reached out to those affected by the recent crisis in Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank. Free resources are available to help critical care practitioners care for patients during a crisis.
SCCM has developed resources for various high-consequence pathogens.
The Society offers several always-free educational resources that may be helpful during a crisis.
SCCM recruits volunteer critical care clinicians to respond to emergency situations of all kinds. A request to organize a call for volunteers must be made by a governmental agent with medical licensure clearance authority. SCCM will then work directly with them to provide the information required and recruit volunteer clinicians from the critical care community.
SCCM is carrying out humanitarian initiatives to substantially improve the healthcare infrastructure in some of the most underserved areas in the world.
