PEDIATRIC READINESS: Prepare Yourself Before They Arrive - Streaming Video

More than 80% of children seek care in general emergency or urgent care centers and not in children’s hospitals.

Despite being the first stop for pediatric emergencies, many front line clinicians feel less confident in their management of pediatric emergencies compared to older patients.  This course will improve your clinical and procedural competence in the highest risk pediatric scenarios through concise case-based lectures led by experts in Pediatric Emergency Medicine who appreciate and are committed to the care being provided outside the children's hospital.

Lectures are case-based interactive presentations of the highest risk pediatric scenarios. All sessions are taught by highly experienced and engaging pediatric emergency medicine faculty from a level-1 trauma academic children’s emergency department.
