The Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) program is a US federal government health initiative, aiming to reduce child and youth disability and death due to severe illness or injury. This is being accomplished with ongoing efforts to increase awareness among health professionals, providers, planners and the general public of the unique physiological and psychological needs of children receiving emergency medical care. EMSC funds and supports improvements in pediatric emergency care in each state and territory through competitive grants and cooperative agreements.
Mission - To reduce child and youth mortality and morbidity resulting from severe illness or trauma.
Resources are available to learn more about Pediatric Readiness work that EMSC programs across the U.S. are driving to improve outcomes and quality of life for children

The National EMSC program requires all EMSC State Partnership grantees collect data by surveying EMS agencies, to evaluate their progress toward meeting performance measures. These performance measures were developed to document activities and accomplishments to improve the delivery of emergency services to children. The EMSC program appreciates every effort taken by EMS agencies to participate in these surveys. The information collected helps the Michigan EMSC program develop meaningful education and other support for EMS providers, to improve the ability to deliver improved care to ill and injured pediatric patients, across the state.
The National EMSC program requires all EMSC State Partnership grantees collect data by assessing all hospitals with an ED open 24/7/365, to evaluate their progress toward meeting performance measures. These performance measures were developed to document activities and accomplishments to improve the delivery of emergency services to children. The EMSC program appreciates every effort taken by hospitals to participate in these assessments. The information collected helps the Michigan EMSC program develop meaningful education and other support for hospital-based providers, to improve the ability to deliver improved care to ill and injured pediatric patients, across the state.
This effort is supported by participation in the National Pediatric Readiness Project and completion of assessments during assessment periods.
EDs can evaluate their pediatric readiness in three easy steps:
1. Take the National Pediatric Readiness Project open assessment at PedsReady.org available outside of the national assessment period for ED’s internal use.
2. Print or save the gap report summary that appears on the screen.
3. Use the report to identify gaps and work with your ED toward improvement.
The gap report summary is accepted for American College of Surgeons Trauma Center Verification where applicable. If you have questions about the assessment or would like more information, email PedsReady@hsc.utah.edu or visit National Pediatric Readiness Project
Currently the nation is in a QI period until the next national Pediatric Readiness Assessment
