Abstract

Interest in the field of neurocritical care appears to be increasing among trainees, and learning to manage these patients (especially in a dedicated environment) is extremely important. Resident and fellow education is now multi-dimensional, including hands-on experiences, lectures, and simulation exercises. Other educational opportunities are also available to trainees, such as the Emergency Neurological Life Support program.
