Walk4PICS at Harford Community College September 27

Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) is a collection of new or worsening impairments in the cognitive, physical, or mental health realm after a stay in the ICU. Walk4PICS was established in 2023 by the Vanderbilt ICU Recovery Center, with a goal to raise awareness of PICS among medical providers, mental health practitioners, and the public. There are countless ICU survivors who spend months, and even years, seeking answers to why they are changed, sometimes permanently, after critical illness. 

The event features a simple walk of any distance up to one mile to challenge our bodies while raising awareness of this complicated syndrome. Walk4PICS wants every ICU survivor living with PICS to know they are not alone and that there is hope and support for their journey.

Harford Community College serves as one of the host sites for this year’s event. The College’s Nursing and Allied Health Professions (NAHP) division is a sponsor. For more information, visit the website:  https://www.walk4pics.com/location/bel-air-md.
