Children are particularly vulnerable during disasters and have different medical and emotional needs than adults. Many reports have identified the gaps that exist in pediatric care throughout the U.S. The Network has developed numerous trainings and resources to close that gap. The Network has conducted pediatric specific trainings providing opportunities for clinicians across Washington to develop the skills and self-assurance needed to provide better pediatric care.
This work has caught the attention of others nationally, and the Network has helped others launch their own workshops to ensure regional providers are prepared to care for children in emergencies.
Below are materials from those workshops, which we hope you will find helpful. For any questions regarding these materials, please feel free to contact us at Info@nwhrn.org Or call the main office at 425-988-2898.
