My new book Trauma Centers: A Quick Guide is being released on February 20 by Springer Verlag. It discusses all the issues regarding trauma center management, performance improvement, and preparing for a site visit. There is also useful information regarding the types of critical patients that trauma centers care for and what is necessary to provide optimal care. This will be of interest for anyone who works in a trauma center, and hospitals considering becoming a designated center. Ill post the link when it is released.
