It means the department can provide total care for every aspect of an injury. All pediatric emergency department physicians and residents are certified in advanced trauma life support training.

Migraines tend to be under-treated If you've ever had a migraine headache before, you know how disabling one can be.
Migraine care depends on careful assessment.
If a physician minimizes or dismisses your headaches, or doesn't take the time to discuss your history, or immediately suggests a pain medication without investigating the possible underlying conditions, you might want to consult a headache specialist. The guide, which surveys 35 area restaurants, indicates whether they have low-fat or skim milk, whether entrees are available grilled, broiled, baked or poached, as a healthier alternative to fried, and whether low fat or nonfat salad dressing and other condiments are available on the side, among other things. The guide was published by the hospital in partnership with the health departments in the greater New Haven area and Roche Pharmaceuticals. The guide also provides suggestions for making healthy selections at restaurants. If you are sensitive to pain, you should pick a hospital that is sensitive to pain.
