The document provides an orientation for medical students on their critical care rotation in the intensive care unit (ICU). It outlines the daily schedule and responsibilities, including morning and afternoon rounds, teaching sessions, procedures students will be expected to learn and perform, evaluations, journal club, grand rounds, and tips for survival. The rotation will be demanding but rewarding, with students gaining experience managing life and death situations and being exposed to a variety of procedures and educational activities under supervision. Support is available from attending physicians and the critical care program for any concerns.
