Thank you for bearing with us despite the frustrating technical issues at our last two sessions. We were very disappointed in the efficacy of our virtual platform and are happy to announce that we will be switching to a new platform before the Oct 7 session. We will send information for joining that session as soon as it’s available.
Recordings Available: Sept 2 & 16
Recordings and slides from all sessions to date--including a re-recorded version of the Sept. 16 session--are available here.
We are still waiting to receive the recording of the Sept. 16 breakout session from our previous virtual platform. I hope to have that available through the above link very soon.
As a reminder, all collaborative materials including the calendar and Focus Area guides can be found on the PWDC website.
Breakout Rooms
Many of who were able to attend the Sept. 16 breakout session enjoyed the combining of tracks and being able to hear the presentations from across the care continuum. After careful consideration, we have chosen to keep the tracks' breakout rooms separate in hopes that relatively smaller numbers in each room will promote robust discussions. Each breakout room will be recorded for later viewing. You may also choose to attend whichever breakout room you would like.
ListServs
The majority of state/territory EMSC program managers already have a listserv or similar communication venue for PECCs within their state/territory. For this reason we have chosen not to duplicate their efforts. Those who opted-in to the sharing of their contact information with their state/territory EMSC program on the Intake Questionnaire will be contacted soon by their local EMSC program manager.
Our Facebook group is also great way to connect with fellow PECCs participating in the collaborative. Click the "Join Here " button the left to join.
Nov 11 - Veteran's Day
The Equipment, Supplies, & Medications session will continue as planned on Nov. 11. The recording will be available for those that have the day off and cannot attend. The only exception is that we will be moving the EMSC program breakout session to Nov. 10. A calendar invitation will be sent shortly.
Focus Area Guide #2 - Patient Safety & Family-Centered Care will be sent on Oct 1 for your review.
*These links are unique to each person. Reminders and completion confirmations are sent automatically by our Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) system. Please email Meredith at pwdc@emscimrpovement.center if you need your link to any of the above.
Do you consider yourself a Pediatric Champion or PECC?
One of our EMSC Scholars is conducting a survey to characterize the pediatric champion/PECC position across the nation. Please consider completing this additional survey to help better define the pediatric champion/PECC role and assist with creating standards. This should take approximately 15 minutes to complete.
