The Institute Catalog

This comprehensive module covers CDC statistics on morbidity and mortality in age ranges from newborn to young adult, wellness checkpoints and immunizations for all age groups, and barriers to healthcare access for children. The module includes exploration of special populations in pediatrics: immigrant, migrant, homeless, foster children, and children with life-limiting illness.

It takes the perspective of pediatrics as addressed by medical specialties and subspecialties, from the view of the case manager, then illuminates the primary functions of the case manager in pediatrics in service and resource provision for patient and family, symptom management and resources over time in a child’s course at the end of life, and concludes with self-care for the case manager.
