Why did you join SPUC?
To become part of a body of professionals dedicated to providing up to date, evidence-based care to the pediatric patient seen in the UC setting. Also, to learn interventions that will enhance communication and collaboration with ER and primary care colleagues to ensure close observation and timely follow-up. I feel this will occur through attending the various webinars.
