Pediatric Community

I am looking to see if anyone has policy’s or guidelines for assessing pediatric patients


Tommy Earnest BSN RN

Hi Tommy,

We have a guideline for assessments at our pediatric emergency department. There is not much in the literature in terms of best practices, so we used some literature and internal evidence at our institution. Send me your email and I will forward you a copy. 

Thanks,
