Texas Pediatric Readiness Education Series

Content

The Texas Pediatric Readiness Improvement Project is a collaborative effort endorsed by the Governor’s Emergency Medical Services and Trauma Advisory Council to improve pediatric outcomes and support rural trauma centers in meeting the proposed Texas trauma rules slated to become effective in September 2024.

Beginning in January 2024, 1-hour virtual sessions will highlight evidence-based practices and resources for adoption in the emergency department, review standardized simulation cases, and integrate opportunities to engage in pediatric quality improvement efforts.

The education series is available at no cost. Continuing education credits are available for nurses and EMS personnel. For more information and to register, click HERE.

View the recorded webinars below. The recordings will be posted within a few days of the live webinar and can also be found on the Texas DSHS GETAC Pediatrics Committee webpage, as well as the Texas Emergency Nurses Association webpage.
