Introduction



Welcome to SickKids. Our hospital is one of the largest paediatric academic
health science centres in the world. Each year we have approximately
240,000 ambulatory visits, 77,000 emergency department visits and 16,000
admissions. As a result, we are able to offer you a variety of rich clinical
experiences in multiple inpatient and ambulatory care settings.

To prepare you for a successful clinical placement and to maximize your
learning experience we have developed this information package. It will
introduce you to important principles of paediatric clinical care and to specific
policies and procedures followed in our institution. You are required to review
the information prior to the start of your clinical placement. You may need to
set aside several hours to thoroughly review the content and we suggest that
you do the review over the course of several days. Note that during your
orientation day you might be asked to complete a test with questions from
various sections of this information package.

We wish you a great learning experience.
