    AbstractThe model currently used in public hospitals in Australia and New Zealand - of closed, mixed medical-surgical ICUs, led by consultant intensivists who remain in charge but collaborate closely across multiple specialties and disciplines and are supported by well trained junior medical staff- is internationally admired and has provided cost-effective care. Careful workforce planning is essential to ensure that intensivists retain their identity and that an efficient model persists into the future.
