Today’s guest is Sheilah Snyder, MD, FAAP, a pediatric hospitalist and CDI physician advisor for Children’s Nebraska (formerly Children's Hospital and Medical Center) in Omaha, Nebraska. Today’s show is part of the “Conversations with Karla” series. In every episode of this series, Product Coordinator and Editor Karla Kozak is joined by a guest who’s behind one of ACDIS’ most popular and exciting educational offerings to share their expertise. 

During today’s episode, Dr. Snyder mentioned two papers written by pediatric CDI physician advisors and professionals and published by ACDIS.
