Abstract:
The proper organization of Intensive Care Medicine Departments is a key element in order to ensure high-quality care of critically ill patients and to preserve the well-being of healthcare professionals. Using a Delphi methodology, the Galician Society of Intensive Care Medicine and Coronary Units (SOGAMIUC) has reached a consensus on a set of recommendations covering structure, clinical organization, continuous care, specialized programs, and staffing requirements in ICUs. These recommendations aim to optimize continuity of care and patient safety, promote a healthy work environment, and encourage the development of advanced clinical programs. Implementation of these measures is proposed as an essential step toward improving clinical outcomes and the well-being of healthcare professionals in Intensive Care Departments.
