Abstract
We report on the first comprehensive statewide assessment of “pediatric readiness” in EDs according to the 2009 “Guidelines for Care of Children in the Emergency Department.” The presence of a pediatric readiness verification process, pediatric emergency care coordinator, and quality improvement plan for pediatric emergency care was associated with higher levels of pediatric readiness.
