Emergency Pediatric Care (EPC) focuses on critical pediatric
physiology, illnesses, injuries, and interventions to help EMS
practitioners provide the best treatment for sick and injured
children in the field. The course stresses application of the
Pediatric Assessment Triangle (PAT), a tool to help EMS
practitioners rapidly and accurately assess pediatric patients.
Case presentations and patient simulations reinforce critical
thinking skills to help practitioners make the best decisions
for their young patients.
