Our Patient and Families
The Trauma Burn Center consists of a ten-bed ICU and six-bed acute care unit. Also included are an operating room, a wound care room, and a family waiting area. Our patient population consists of adults who have sustained multiple trauma, non-trauma emergency illnesses, and patients with other illnesses who may require accommodation in the Trauma Burn ICU. Also, adults of all ages and pediatric burn patients are admitted to the Trauma Burn Center.

Philosophy of Care
The nurses at the Trauma Burn Center strive to provide quality care to severely injured patients from immediate post injury through rehabilitation. We believe that each person is an individual with specific needs whose care from the day of admission is designed to return him/her to society as a useful, productive individual. The Trauma Burn Program is a verified Level 1 Trauma Center by the American College of Surgeons and a recognized regional burn center.

Our Nursing Team
The Trauma Burn nursing care delivery system is a combination of case management and team nursing. Our nursing teams consist of Registered Nurses, LPNs and Surgical ICU Technicians. The nursing staff is oriented to care for all patients, ICU, step-down, and floor status.
