MISSION - WHAT WE DO

To ensure that every child in Tennessee receives the best pediatric emergency care in order to eliminate the effects of severe illness and injury.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

EMS Star of Life Program Ambulance services in Tennessee respond every year to over 1 million 911 calls. The EMS Star of Life Awards Program honors the dedication of those who provide day-to-day lifesaving services on the medical "front line" in Tennessee. The program presents the life saving scenarios and reunites the EMS caregivers with the individuals they saved from eight EMS regions across the state. This event promotes best practice delivery of emergency medicine. The criteria for the nominations states that the EMS provider must follow best practice protocol and the patient must be neurologically intact. Annual Update in Acute & Emergency Care Pediatrics Conference The Annual Update in Acute & Emergency Care Pediatrics Conference is sponsored by Tennessee Emergency Medical Services for Children Foundation and the four Comprehensive Regional Pediatric Centers (CRPCs) across Tennessee. The mission of the conference is to promote pediatric emergency care to physicians, nurses, emergency medical services, and the community through outreach. This conference, routinely attended by more than 200 healthcare providers, is the only conference of its kind in the state of Tennessee. It brings together physicians, nurses, pre-hospital providers, and administrative decision makers from across the state to focus on acute and emergency care needs of children. Evaluation of our conference is measured through a number of tracking methods including: demographic information, attendee program evaluations, and speaker evaluations. 90% of participants will report increased learning from each workshop. Mock Resuscitation Codes to non children hospital emergency departments & EMS agencies in Tennessee The majority of care administered by emergency departments and ambulances is given to adults. Medical care for children requires special training and equipment. Emergency care providers need to be aware of and trained on these differences.
