A trauma center is a hospital or medical facility that is specifically equipped and staffed to provide immediate and comprehensive care for patients with traumatic injuries.
Trauma centers typically have teams of specialized medical professionals, such as trauma surgeons and nurses, as well as advanced equipment and facilities for emergency care, surgery, and critical care.
They are often located in or near major highways or other areas where traumatic injuries are likely to occur, such as near an airport or industrial area.
The goal of a trauma center is to provide rapid and effective treatment for patients with serious injuries in order to improve their chances of survival and recovery.
