In 1982, Intensive Care was formally recognized as a specialty in New Zealand! That same year, the Faculty of Anaesthetists invited ANZICS to join the Standards Committee to develop the ‘Minimum Standards for Intensive Care’.
A huge milestone on our journey to excellence!

In 1978, ANZICS joined forces with organisations from the USA, UK, France, Switzerland, Mexico, and Israel to discuss the formation of the World Federation of Societies of Intensive and Critical Care Medicine. 🌍
Even in its early years, ANZICS was shaping the future of intensive care worldwide. 💡🏥

In 1977 ANZICS begins publishing regular newsletters to members in its quest to connect the intensive care community. In 1995, the newsletter became ‘The ANZICS Intensivist’, which today, continues to inform members with news, events and stories from across the sector.

Another piece of the @anzics.bsky.social story. The Matt Spence Medal remains a prestigious award at the annual conference.
The countdown begins… 50 years of ANZICS in 50 days!⏳🎉
In 1975, Matt Spence (NZ) and Bob Wright (AUS) spearheaded the formation of ANZICS to advance and represent the specialty of Intensive Care. From the beginning, professional issues and continuing education were key priorities.

Thought provoking and sobering commentary from @hildabast.bsky.social
In which I unpack what it means to keep calm & carry on, remember A.V. Hill's calls for science internationalism in the 1930s, & challenge the Cochrane Collaboration to return to its values as a matter of urgency.
A Balancing Act
This tree stopped me in my tracks a few years ago, when my life was torn apart by grief. "Life goals," I thought, seeing the way it had found new footing and strength after such devastation. I craved that recovery of internal balance, and the steadiness of it. It came, though it took time. I think this is why there is so much power in the iconic KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON poster.
