HRSA’s Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) is currently working on the National Pediatric Readiness Project and the goal of the initiative is to survey every hospital emergency department in the U.S. (with the exception of psychiatric or other specialty hospitals with no E.D.). They are working with the support of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) and the Emergency Nurses Association (ENP) to get the word out to all hospital emergency department nurse managers that this online survey is coming, and invite them to participate.
