Tips for Thriving in Pediatric Clinical - ENCORE! #360
It's really helpful to know a few specific things in advance of your pediatric clinicals so you can make the most of your experience from the start.
In this episode, I'm sharing my top 6 pediatric clinical tips, including:
How to customize your plan of care based on the child’s developmental stage
A quick way to estimate hypotension in children

You don't want just any system though, you want one that sets you up to thrive.
