Session

Description: The Academic Pediatric Association (APA) PHM Leadership SIG and American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) SOHM Division Directors Subcommittee will be conducting a combined meeting at PAS this year. Chairs of these two respective groups collaborate to address topics of shared interest. As Pediatric Hospital Medicine (PHM) continues to establish itself as a board-certified specialty, the joint session at PAS provides a forum for discussion of important topics, allowing for critical networking to share best practices. This year’s combined session will once again seek to further explore many of the issues that currently face PHM and continue to define the future of the specialty. Fundamental to shaping our future is continuing to better understand how best to meet our workforce needs across the country, how to recruit and retain an engaged and diverse group of pediatric hospitalists, and how to develop their career interests and academic skills.

This combined session seeks to further explore many of these issues, share best practices, and continue to establish resources for hospitalists around the country. During this combined session, we will provide an update on several ongoing initiatives, solicit feedback, and brainstorm and share experiences about current and emerging opportunities and challenges in our field.

Learning Objectives:

Discuss leadership challenges and opportunities affecting the pediatric hospital medicine workforce.
Promote initiatives to support pediatric hospital medicine community well-being and engagement in work.
Share strategies to develop and support pediatric hospitalists’ academic skills and promotion.
