Chandler Regional Medical Center’s Level-1 Trauma Center Has Received Official Verification from the American College of Surgeons

Posted in:

The American College of Surgeons has verified Dignity Health Chandler Regional Medical Center as a level-1 trauma center. This achievement recognizes the trauma center's dedication to providing optimal care for injured patients.

Level-1 verification confirms that a hospital can provide comprehensive, round-the-clock care for patients with the most serious trauma injuries, from admission through rehabilitation and follow-up care. Chandler Regional has been addressing the emergent needs of the East Valley for more than 50 years and began operating on provisional status as a level-1 trauma center on March 24, 2014

“The verification of our trauma center is a true testament of our commitment to serving the community and a direct result of our trauma team’s efforts which have been instrumental in the success of this program allowing us to be there for all patients when minutes matter most,” says Tim Bricker, president and CEO of Dignity Health Chandler Regional and Mercy Gilbert Medical Centers. “It is a remarkable and important accomplishment.”

The American College of Surgeons trauma verification is confirmation that a trauma center has demonstrated its commitment to providing the highest quality trauma care for all injured patients.
