Pediatric Health Care Resources

Pediatric health care resources help ensure that children receive developmentally appropriate medical assessment, treatment, medication support, specialty consultation, and continuity of care throughout the reunification process.

Potential partners include:

  • Children’s hospitals
  • Community hospitals with pediatric capabilities
  • Pediatric urgent care facilities
  • Pediatric primary care and specialty clinics
  • Pediatric rehabilitation centers
  • Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC)
  • Pediatric subject matter experts from health care coalitions
Planning should define how reunification personnel will obtain pediatric consultation, transfer children requiring higher levels of care, replace essential medications or equipment, and share authorized medical information during an emergency.
