Medical school anaesthesia societies
Medical school anaesthesia societies are set up by medical students within their medical schools around the UK
They all have a general goal of raising awareness of anaesthesia and critical care, and they provide opportunity for its members to demonstrate their interest in these specialties.
Activities of the anaesthesia and critical care societies may include:
- career events and workshops
- mentoring schemes, and
- revision talks and lectures.
