Critical Care for the Hospitalist Series
SUMMARY
Many hospitalists provide critical care services without adequate support or training, putting patients at risk and exposing hospitalists to medical liability. This educational series covers common or high-risk clinical scenarios that hospitalists encounter in and out of the intensive care unit.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Any hospitalist physician or advanced practice provider who manages patients in an intensive care unit (ICU).
