Strengthening Pediatric Emergency Care Through Connection and Collaboration
Every ED should be prepared to provide high-quality emergency care for children. ImPACTS helps make that possible by connecting hospitals, health systems, state programs, and Pediatric Emergency Care Coordinators (PECCs) with the people, strategies, and support needed to put Pediatric Readiness into practice.
Turning Pediatric Readiness Into Practice
The National Pediatric Readiness Project (NPRP) Roadmap helps EDs understand where they are in their Pediatric Readiness journey and identify steps toward improvement. ImPACTS helps organizations move those steps forward by providing practical implementation support, connections, and opportunities to learn from others.
Through consultation, mentorship, network development, and shared learning, ImPACTS connects organizations with others engaged in similar work. This collaboration allows them to learn from successful strategies, tackle common challenges, and drive improvements together.

Why ImPACTS?
Improvement Works Better Together
​
Hospitals and PECCs often face similar challenges when working to strengthen Pediatric Readiness. ImPACTS creates opportunities to share what works—connecting people with practical strategies, experienced peers, and support they can adapt to their own settings.
​
By learning from one another, organizations can build on successful approaches rather than starting from scratch.
