The Society for Pediatric Urgent Care has partnered with the CDC through the AMR Challenge to commit to decreasing inappropriate antibiotic use in pediatric urgent care organizations by 20% by December 2019.
SPUC will work with CDC and the Antibiotic Resistance Action Center (ARAC) to continue an ongoing project that examines and improves the use of antibiotics in pediatric urgent care by implementing quality improvement initiatives.
The project will collect, analyze, and feedback data monthly to participating providers and centers through 2019 to guide each organization’s quality improvement efforts.
