Pediatric Readiness Checklist in Urgent Care

This checklist provides a leadership-level framework to help urgent care centers assess , enhance , and maintain pediatric emergency readiness —particularly during emergency department (ED) surges, public health crises, or mass casualty events.

It offers guidance on planning, staffing, communication, and coordination with pediatric referral systems. While many urgent care centers are not traditionally equipped to handle pediatric emergencies, this tool helps close that gap by promoting preparedness and alignment with broader healthcare systems.
