General EM physicians are well trained to care for kids, and most of us care for them regularly in the ED. Usually it’s for common things like viral upper respiratory infections or playground injuries. But every once in a while, a critically ill or injured child comes in. Are you ready? Is your ED ready? Do you have tiny endotracheal tubes and nurses who can place IVs in those tiny veins? What else do we need to do to be “peds ready”? We’re glad you asked. In this episode, we talk with national leaders in the field of pediatric emergency medicine and pediatric emergency readiness. Listen to learn more about what it means to be peds ready and why it’s so important!

We’re working on an episode on what it’s like to be a woman in emergency medicine. We’d be honored if you’d share your story? Contact us as above, or leave your story on a brief voicemail at 951-251-4804 (don’t worry, we’ll edit it to make it sound smooth!).
