The emergency department specializes in treating children up to age of 17 with a broad spectrum of illness and injuries including orthopedic, respiratory, cardiac, chronic illness, abuse, psychiatric care and of course trauma. We became a Level I Pediatric Trauma Center in 2011 and have continuously upheld this Credential. We see approximately 600 plus traumas including burn activations a year in the department as we are also a dedicated Burn center. We offer a robust trauma program to our nursing staff that includes a trauma bootcamp, trauma team lead course, Trauma Nursing Core Course, and quarterly trauma simulations to ensure our staff have adequate training and knowledge to provide the upmost care to our community. We also have a growing SANE team that is available or on call to provide care to abused children. We pride ourselves on offering extraordinary and ever evolving care to our pediatric population while encouraging and providing areas of ongoing growth to our nursing staff. From free opportunities to obtain certifications such as pediatric advanced life support and neonatal resuscitation to national certifications with potential monetary gains up to 15% for completing a clinical pathway.
