Trauma Speakers Series
Children’s Minnesota Trauma Speakers Series V: Caring for Children in Disasters
Children’s Minnesota Trauma Speaker Series V will highlight the care of injured children in the setting of a disaster situation. This series is being held in partnership with Region V for Kids, a federally funded consortium comprised of ten other children's hospitals within the states of Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Objectives:
Use case reviews to highlight the importance of ongoing assessment of the injured child to identify injuries and promote recovery.
Review strategies and best practices for the care of children during a disaster situation.
Join us on the second Wednesday of each month as our trauma team discusses topics relevant to caring for trauma patients. At Children’s Minnesota, we’re specialized in everything, and ready for anything.
