Choosing Wisely
Several nursing organizations worked together to bring pediatric nurse expertise to Choosing Wisely, a national initiative of the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Foundation. Choosing Wisely promotes informed patient-provider dialogue about appropriate healthcare treatments and tests. Families and health care providers alike benefit from this effort.
Update: New pediatric nursing specific topics listed below have been approved by the American Academy of Nursing and the ABIM. These topics will facilitate wise decisions about the most appropriate care based on evidence-based research.
Thank you to the Society of Pediatric Nurses and American Pediatric Surgical Nurses Association, Inc./American Pediatric Surgical Association for their contributions to Choosing Wisely!
