with the designation of the St. Luke’s Regional Resource Level I Trauma Center and the addition of two additional PENNStar helicopters, improving the UPHS Trauma Network to better serve our patients in the Philadelphia and Lehigh Valley areas.

With round the clock support from in-house trauma surgeons and emergency medicine physicians, as well as the dedicated support from the members of the departments of anesthesia, orthopedics, neurosurgery, and rehabilitation, as well as our trauma nurses and support staff, the Trauma Center at Penn is able to offer our patients the highest level of care.

We hope that this website serves as a useful tool to the many resources of our Division including, the Trauma and Surgical Critical Care Fellowship, the Office of Life Support Education, and the Firearm and Injury Center at Penn.
