About the National Pediatric Readiness Project Assessment
The National Pediatric Readiness Project (NPRP) Assessment, available at PedsReady.org, offers EDs the opportunity to:
- Benchmark against updated national standards
- Identify new gaps and opportunities for improvement
- Track progress over time
The updated assessment is based on recently revised joint standards.
