The intensivist will promote, within the entire system of progressive care for critically ill patients, their participation in health programs and the improvement of care, raise the levels of health education, develop the public's trust in their institutions, and strengthen doctor-patient-family relationships.

These must be acquired during on-the-job training in the Obstetrics and Gynecology service, delivery room, operating rooms, outpatient clinics, medical on-call shifts, and rotations through other levels and institutions of the health system.
