Consequently the acuity is very high and there is a substantial exposure to patient with inadequate access to medical care and to the urban afflictions of interpersonal violence and drug/alcohol abuse. Hurley has a very active trauma program and is certified as a Level I Trauma center by ht e American College of Surgeons. Pediatric patients constitute 25% of the total population. The Emergency department is staffed by twenty-two faculty, all of whom are certified by the American Board of Emergency Medicine.
