Emergency Nurse Pediatric Course

ENPC Provider

The Emergency Nurse Pediatric Course (ENPC) is a 16 hour evidence-based course designed to provide core level pediatric knowledge and psychomotor skills needed to care for pediatric patients.  This course presents a systematic assessment model, integrates the associated anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology and identifies appropriate interventions.  ENPC meets 12 of the 13 clinical and professional competencies as specified in the Joint Policy Statement – Guidelines for Care of Children in the Emergency Department Appendix.  The ENA recommends ENPC as the minimal required education for emergency pediatric nursing.
