Program Description:

The greatest danger to a child's life throughout the country is death and disability due to injury. The pediatric surgeons work hand-in-hand with the Level I Trauma surgeons of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and their trauma team to care for the most seriously injured children throughout the central part of the state. Transfer to the Trauma Center by land or air is rapidly and smoothly arranged. Coordination among the various necessary surgical specialties is achieved, all with constant focus upon the unique physical and psychological needs of the growing child. The pediatric surgeons actively participate in the education of pre-hospital care providers, pediatric emergency medicine physicians, residents and medical students in the handling of the traumatized child.
