Hospital care policy available

A new Academy policy statement on Quality Assurance of Hospital Care of Children is available from the AAP Division of Pediatric Practice.

Approved by the Executive Board in April, the statement was drafted by the Committee on Hospital Care in response to inquiries from Academy members who want information on the best quality assurance approach for evaluating the care of hospitalized pediatric patients.

To request a copy of the statement, write to: Quality Assurance Statement, AAP, Division of Pediatric Practice, P.O. Box 927, Elk Grove Village, IL 60007.
