It also includes a review of patient outcomes based on pre-hospital efforts. To arrange this program for your squad, call Carol Petersen, trauma nurse coordinator at 402-481-5150 or e-mail carol.petersen@bryanlgh.org.
Trauma Team Programs
Develop or enhance your hospital's "trauma team" approach.
As requested by hospital representatives, Reginald Burton MD, trauma director, and others from the BryanLGH trauma program will develop "trauma team" education for ED personnel, nurses, physicians, EMTs/paramedics and other hospital staff members. Education topics include Advanced Trauma Life Support resuscitation principles, EMS notification, hospital activation and team member roles. Mock traumas are staged to help evaluate a hospital system's response to trauma patients' needs. To arrange this program, call Carol Petersen, trauma nurse coordinator, at 402-481-5150 or e-mail carol.petersen@bryanlgh.org.
