Pediatric Emergency Medicine

(4 Credits)

Bellevue has recently opened a new Emergency Service, permitting optimal care for our patients in a more spacious, comfortable, efficient and well monitored setting. We see a wide spectrum of pediatric disease and trauma in the Pediatric Emergency Service. Students will function independently, while becoming familiar with history taking and the pediatric physical exam. Under the supervision of the Pediatric Emergency Service attending, they will generate a differential diagnosis and carry out a management plan.
