I am requesting members of the NJ ENA to sign on as supporters of a General Assembly Resolution to explore improving child maltreatment screening in our county.
The two asks are below.
Resolved: To explore available evidence-based screening tools for CM, for use as a best practice in the emergency department setting
Resolved, to update educational toolkits to screen for CM. This toolkit should include the Ten-4 Faces for recognizing child abuse as reference tools that can help emergency care providers identify children at risk. This compilation of educational information will support an emergency department's easy adoption of these best practices. These tools can also be used to guide the necessary annual education on child maltreatment, which can further sustain the healthcare provider's knowledge of CM identification.
The full document, which provides comprehensive details about the General Assembly Resolution, is readily accessible. To review it in its entirety, scan the RQ code provided.
Please use the link below to sign on as a supporter.
