We don't get any little ones in my unit. The youngest we will accept at the moment is some teenagers. We ship all the sick kids out, but there is talk of starting to keep some of them because we now have pediatric intensivists and hospitalists. It kinda scares me to think that I might have a kid in the ICU, but I am also kinda excited about it!

Thank goodness we dont' take kids either. Ooooh...the thought makes me shiver!

You might want to post this in a PICU forum?
