Trauma spans the continuum of care, including injury prevention, pre-hospital, acute care and rehabilitation.

We provide care for thousands of injured children yearly, and are dedicated to improving trauma care for injured children locally, regionally and provincially. These injuries range from minor to severe.

Most injuries are predictable and preventable. We can all decrease our risk of injury by recognizing and acting on the risks.
