Children’s Minnesota Trauma Speaker Series IV:
Caring for the Whole Patient

Children’s Minnesota Trauma Speaker Series IV is designed to strengthen the trauma assessment skills and knowledge of trauma care for front-line caregivers in order to facilitate positive outcomes for injured pediatric patients. Through the use of case scenarios and discussions highlighting care considerations, the learner will gain knowledge and awareness of the impact of social, cultural, and ethical aspects of their patients’ lives on the care they receive for their injuries. 

Objectives:

• Use case reviews to highlight the importance of ongoing assessment of the injured child to identify injuries and promote recovery. 
• Discuss the religious, cultural, and social beliefs, histories, and traditions of various community groups and their impact on the care of injured children.
• Review legal and ethical principles that guide the care of injured children in the healthcare setting.  

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.
