About PEPtalk - Pediatric Emergencies for Parents

From the publisher's feed

As parents, we all want to keep our children safe and healthy, but the reality is that accidents and illnesses can happen, often when we least expect them. Bringing our children to the Emergency Department can be a frightening and confusing experience. That is why we created a podcast dedicated to helping parents navigate pediatric emergencies and understand the conditions that may bring their children to the emergency room.
