Pediatric Education for Prehospital Professionals (PEPP) | ![]() |
| BACK TO SPECIALIZED EMS TRAINING |
Going out on a critical pediatric call is one if the most stressful parts of being an EMS provider. Even in a non-critical setting, assessing a pediatric patient presents unique challenges. With only 10% of calls involving children, and only 1 in 100 dealing with critical pediatric patients, do you have the skills to answer these questions in the first few seconds on-scene?
How sick is this child?
How quickly do I need to act?
What is this child's physiological problem?
PEPP represents a comprehensive source of prehospital medical information for the emergent care of infants and children. Developed by the American Academy of Pediatrics, PEPP is an exciting new program designed specifically to teach prehospital professionals how to better assess and manage ill or injured children. The one-day BLS course is geared towards First Responders and EMT Basics, while the two-day ALS course is for EMT-Intermediate and Paramedic providers.
