Abstract

Semi-structured interviews with 22 clinicians and community partners explored expanding child-focused clinical services in a Mobile Integrated Community Paramedicine (MICP) program. Two themes emerged: desire to expand child-focused clinical services and a need for additional training and support of a whole-family approach. Participants endorsed integrating clinical evaluation of children in the MICP programs they interact with.
