The Trauma Resuscitation Bay has 4 bays and is located at the entrance of the ARMC City Campus Emergency Center. It is staffed with trauma surgeons, trauma nurse practitioners, 2 registered nurses, trauma tech, anesthesiologists, respiratory therapists, radiology technologists, and trauma patient care associates who are in the hospital 24-hours a day.
The Trauma Resuscitation Bay is the area in which emergency assessment and treatment begins. From this area, patients may be transported to radiology for CT scan, the operating room or an inpatient unit for admission. Assessment and stabilization must occur quickly and efficiently; therefore, bedside visiting in this area is usually not permitted. As soon as possible, a member of the trauma team will speak with you.
