What differentiates a Level One Trauma Center?

Great question! What makes the pediatric Level One Trauma Center special is we can treat every illness, injury and medical condition that comes through the door. In some instances, care facilities without Level One designation need to refer patients to us because we have the expert physicians and advanced technology to address even the most complex issues.
