The CCM Residency Program is an accredited program that strives to create an environment that is conducive for the development of critical care specialists who place an emphasis on patient-centred care, clinical expertise, communication and professionalism.

The Program office and teaching facilities are based out of the McMaster Campus of Hamilton Health Sciences (HHS) but all CCM trainees rotate through St. Joseph’s Healthcare as well as the Juravinski and General sites of HHS.

We accept trainees from various base specialties including Internal Medicine, General Surgery, Anesthesia, Emergency Medicine, and Cardiac Surgery. Trainees from other specialties are also eligible to apply if all requisite rotations are completed. Canadian medical graduates apply through CaRMS during the Fall Medicine Subspecialties Match period. We accept 2-3 CaRMS applicants and approximately 2-3 international medical graduates per year. Please feel free to contact us regarding Program itself or the application process.
