Pediatric and family health care providers are invited to join the Pediatrics ECHO. This series focuses on the unique needs of pediatric patients in the mountain west. Pediatric care specialists teach about the identification and treatment of complex diseases, behavioral health issues, and common acute diagnoses. Those who attend these sessions improve their ability to provide treatment at the top of their license.
CME credit is available to those who attend.
Our Fall module beginning August 2022 will include sessions on Transition to Adult Care, Shriners Children’s services, Pediatric Orthopedics, Respiratory issues, and more.
