Best Practices in Pediatrics and Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2018

Wisconsin Dells, WI US
March 1, 2018 to March 3, 2018

Overview
This conference will provide the latest information about common problems encountered in pediatric practice. Many providers caring for the acutely ill and injured child encounter clinical situations where their comfort level and competency is challenged. The target audience is often the first to treat and stabilize these children prior to transferring to a higher level of care. Studies have shown the providers such as emergency medicine physicians do not feel comfortable when managing these situations.

We also have a half day of lecture topics focused on the nutrition which will discuss all area from birth and formula to picky eaters to sports nutrition and fad diets. Pediatricians do not often have access to this comprehensive type of education.

The goal of this program is to provide the most up to date, evidence based practices to the target audience.  The goal will be to provide them with information on common pediatric emergencies and general pediatric care, including recommendations on when to refer to higher level of care.
