Focus | How to Use the PEARL
|
|
The weekly PEARL allows you to brush up on pediatric emergency education in 10 minutes or less. The PEARL can also be used:
- by training officers, medical directors, nurse educators, Pediatric Emergency Care Champions/Coordinators (PECCs) and others to provide weekly pediatric education
- by readers to share knowledge and review case scenarios with colleagues on shifts or via social media
- by administrators or outreach coordinators to print and post in hospital ambulance intake rooms, lounge or break areas, bulletin boards, etc.
This issue is dedicated to the PEARL's Archive, which is turning into a robust database of pediatric resources. Browse through what we've already covered—and let us know what you'd like to see next!
