ELSO would like to recognize Children's Hospital of Wisconsin for receiving the Award for Excellence in Life Support!

One of the reasons Children's Hospital of Wisconsin was found noteworthy as specified by the ELSO Award Committee is:

Your ongoing Specialist education and training is mandatory, and Specialists are not allowed to staff the pump until the information is obtained from the coordinator. You also have a formal critical incident debriefing team and staff trained to be debriefers, who help your team after critical events.

Specifically, the below mentioned staff have been instrumental in Children's Hospital of Wisconsin's outstanding achievements.

Richard Berens, MD, Director ECMO Program
James Tweddell, MD, Director ECMO Program
Jeanne Braby, RN, MSN, CCRN, Coordinator ECMO Program
Chris Brabant, CCP, Chief Perfusionist
Tom Rice, MD, Director of Critical Care
Kay Fischer, RN, MSN, Nurse Manager, PICU
Joe Kau, BMET, Clinical Engineer ECMO Program
