Emergency and Trauma Center

Emergency and Trauma Center

The  Emergency and Trauma Center at Saint Francis Medical Center is the region's only state-designated Level III Trauma Center and provides care for approximately 35,000 patients annually.

To improve regional access to emergency and trauma care, Saint Francis has recently completed an extensive two-phase expansion and renovation project. The newly expanded Emergency and Trauma Center opened in early 2011. This new state-of-the art facility offers 26 private treatment rooms, all with direct access to bathrooms, as well as three trauma rooms, two triage rooms and a special procedures room for a total of 32 total patient rooms. The Emergency and Trauma Center features hospital-based, board certified emergency medicine physicians and trauma surgeons who provide critical care 24 hours a day, seven days a week. A highly experienced nursing staff with specialty training in advanced cardiac life support, trauma and pediatrics supports Saint Francis' physicians around the clock. Additionally, a trauma case manager coordinates all care for trauma patients.
