Who we are

The Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA) is the third largest medical Royal College in the UK by membership. With a combined membership of 22,000 fellows and members, it represents and ensures the quality of patient care by safeguarding standards in the three specialties of anaesthesia, intensive care and pain medicine.

The College is the professional body responsible for the specialty of anaesthesia throughout the UK at all stages of our fellows’ and members’ careers. As anaesthetists, we have overall responsibility for patients’ wellbeing before, during and after surgery. We are the lynchpin that holds secondary and tertiary care together and are the UK’s largest hospital specialty.

16% of all hospital consultants are anaesthetists and
over two-thirds of hospital in-patients will see an anaesthetist

The College champions the diverse and critical work of anaesthetists, and the science that underpins our work. We recruit, train and examine anaesthetists to the most exacting standards. We support our fellows and members throughout their careers irrelevant of age and region. We fund research to ensure that anaesthesia continues to advance at a rapid rate. We promote the sharing of knowledge and best practice, as well as working with government on crucial policies, and with other stakeholders in the UK and overseas to make sure that anaesthesia and anaesthetists play a central role in shaping and delivering the healthcare agenda.

The College is the home of the Faculty of Pain Medicine and one of the eight parent Colleges of the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine.

Join us today!

What we do

We are committed to supporting our combined membership of 22,000 fellows and members throughout their careers. Our key areas of work include:

  • setting high standards of clinical care to ensure the constant rise in quality of patient care and safety

We promote the sharing of knowledge and best practice working with government and other stakeholders in the UK and overseas to make sure that anaesthesia and anaesthetists play a central role in shaping and delivering the healthcare agenda.
