For decades, policy makers and providers have recognized the special needs of children, but the system has been slow to develop an adequate response to their needs. This is in part due to inadequacies within the broader emergency care system. \u003ci\u003eEmergency Care for Children\u003c\/i\u003e examines the challenges associated with the provision of emergency services to children and families and evaluates progress since the publication of the Institute of Medicine report \u003ci\u003eEmergency Medical Services for Children\u003c\/i\u003e (1993), the first comprehensive look at pediatric emergency care in the United States.
