Knowledge transfer is challenging in the ICU department because junior doctors are only there on a 6 month rotation. Since time available to train doctors is short, most knowledge transfer happens on the job. The available learning resource is unsuitable for on-the-go referencing, so doctors typically rely on googling or asking their peers, which is inefficient.
