Emergency Medical Services for Children

Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) is a specialized program focused on improving emergency care for children. It involves training healthcare providers, equipping ambulances, and creating protocols tailored to children’s unique medical needs. The goal is to ensure that when children experience medical emergencies, they receive prompt, appropriate, and high-quality care. EMSC also promotes research and system improvements to better understand and address pediatric emergencies, working across hospitals, EMS agencies, and communities to enhance overall child health outcomes during emergencies.
