The Belgian Pediatric Intensive Care Society was founded in 2020 as a multidisciplinary non-profit organization for those involved and interested in Pediatric Intensive Care and represents the Belgian Pediatric Intensive Care community at a national and international level.
The training as intensivist in Belgium is a supplementary training as a subspecialist, following certification in anesthesia, pediatrics, internal medicine, surgery or emergency medicine. This results in extra certification. Promotion of a specific and high-quality training program for Pediatric Intensivists is a primary aim of our society.
Taking into consideration the current criteria for general training in intensive care, and looking forward to the future needs of the job, Be-Pics has put forward a specific proposition how this is best filled out for doctors training to be a pediatric intensivist, following a request by the flemish certification committee for intensive care medicine. Full texts can be found on this website.
Let wel: hierin staat dat het maar voor een periode van 6 maanden is, maar dit is ondertussen uitgebreid naar 1 jaar met ook mogelijk vaste aanstelling nadien.
On January 21st, 80 Be-Pics members attended our virtual meeting ‘Life on PICU during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemia’. You can watch the presentations by Els Duval and Séverine Goenen again.
