Critical Care

Welcome to the KESSEL-PAMS Network Webpages

The information here is intended for use by network members and their colleagues

Context

It is critical we ensure judicious and appropriate use of antibiotics to treat children well now and so we have them to use into the future (by minimising resistance)

This can be supported across hospitals by working in networks sharing knowledge, skills, best practices and experiences of innovation and QI projects – a regional network enables us to do this best

Baseline Activity Survey

If you haven’t yet, please complete the survey of your hospital’s CURRENT paediatric AMS activities as a baseline evaluation – use the QR code below or this link to access the survey.  This should be completed as a hospital team rather than by individual people.
