Join us for a powerful Special Edition episode focused on one of the most critical—and often hidden—realities faced in emergency care.

Our two lecturers will bring the best knowledge in this subject:

Amanda Palm, PA‑C, LCSW  UW Health Kids Physician Assistant in the Division of Child Protection at American Family Children’s Hospital. With dual certification and hands-on involvement in pediatric abuse evaluation and clinical decision support implementation in ED settings, she brings real-world insight into identifying and responding to sentinel injuries in infants

Mary Mansker, MSW  Social Worker affiliated with UW Pediatrics’ Child Protection team, experienced in forensic interviewing and supporting children and families through domestic violence and neglect investigations

Whether you’re in the field or at the bedside, this session will equip you with practical tools and clinical insight to act with confidence when the stakes are highest.         

Why attend?

• Learn from practitioners at the forefront of pediatric child protection—professionals who daily navigate the complexities of detecting early warning signs and guiding mandated responses.

• Gain evidence-based, field-tested tools for both EMS and ED providers to confidently identify abuse and IPV and navigate reporting pathways.

• Enhance cross-sector collaboration—two disciplines, one mission: early detection, safe care, and informed action in emergency settings.
