Level 2 Trauma Units

Institutions within the SCDC are divided between three levels. These levels include: high security, medium security, minimum security, and community-based,

There are three main types of muscle tissue in the body: Skeletal muscle, smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. Firstly, skeletal muscle has a stripped appearance when it is examined under a microscope so it is sometimes known as striated/stripped muscle. Skeletal muscle is voluntary and this means that it is under conscious control. Secondly, there is smooth muscle which is an involuntary muscle that operates without any conscious control. This muscle is controlled by the nervous system. Smooth muscle can be found in the blood vessels and the walls of the digestive system and it helps to control digestion and blood pressure. Lastly, there is cardiac muscle which is located in in the wall of the heart. Cardiac muscle is involuntary and this means that it is not under conscious control. This is made up of a specialised type of tissue which is striated and it has its own blood supply. The contractions aid the pumping of blood through the blood vessels

The different levels of care for E/M services are used for reporting purposes, are found within each category and subcategory and are not interchangeable. The descriptors that define the levels of E/M services are history, examination, medical decision making, counseling,

Realigning the Trauma Services Department to incorporate a Trauma Services Coordinator is a cost effective and innovative way to expand the injury prevention program at St. Anthony North Health Campus. Shifting the scope of the Trauma Registrar to that of a Trauma Coordinator will enhance the current outreach program with the improved job description. Furthermore, there will be better compliance with regulatory agencies, as well as an active pursuit to attain national goals to improve the health of all Americans, fulfill the mission of Centura, and realize the visions of the hospital. Most importantly, there will improved attention to the ever-growing needs of the community in regard to injury and violence prevention.

The sixth highest ranking capability is Public Health and Medical Services. These are more general services to serve those who need medical and general health related attention and support, but which do not fall within the category of critical.

The E/M is organized by the setting of where the service was provided, like an office visit or a hospital visit. The divisions of the E/M are categories and subcategories, with the category being the first step in finding the code. The subcategories help to describe the different levels of care given to each patient. The different levels can be divided by age or a new or established patient. To help determine the level of care you will need to know the type of history, examination, and decision making of the visit. The different levels range from problem focused, expanded problem focused, detailed, and comprehensive. With some codes you will

Must provide emergency services to any person living in hospital’s service area who cannot afford those services.

Category one, the complex case management, is designed for members with multifaceted medical conditions/multiple conditions. These associates include adults and children with diabetes, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and/or congestive heart failure. associates are contacted by a care manager who evaluates their health status, develop a self-management plan, and assist in receiving appropriate care (Johns Hopkins Hospital, 2014; Johns Hopkins Medicine, 2015). In addition, other complex medical conditions include: high-risk pregnancy, cancer, HIV/AIDS, cardiovascular disease, end stage renal

We use CPT codes to describe the medical procedures, diagnostic services, products, and supplies provided to patients . We use these CPT codes on insurance claim forms. The difference between Level I and Level II CPT codes. Level I are CPT codes and Level II are National codes. Level I is the primary coding system used in outpatient settings to code professional services provided to patients. Level II are five-position alphanumeric codes representing non physician and physician services and supplies that are not represented in Level I. Both codes are maintained, copyright, approved, and developed by different organizations.

The emergency department at Mclaren Greater Lansing Hospital is a level three trauma unit with forty beds which is divided to three different zones. Zone one is for possible level one trauma or patients with very high level of acuity, zone two for patients who need the help of more than two subsystem in their plan of care, and zone three for patients with simple complaints such as sore throat.

Trauma teams apply mission command continually as they deal with the traumas coming in. The acuity of the traumas coming in determines if the trauma team will be activated. According to the North Central Texas Regional Advisory council, the most common traumas that require automatic trauma team response include: multisystem blunt trauma with unstable vital signs, penetrating injury of head, neck, chest abdomen, burns greater than 20% or involving face, airway, hands, feet, or genitalia, amputations, paralysis or other signs of spinal cord injury, flail chest, open or suspected depressed skull fracture, unstable pelvis or open pelvic fracture, two or more longbone fractures, and high energy events such as fall greater than 20ft, ejection from vehicle, death of occupant in same vehicle, bent steering wheel, auto-pedestrian impact, motorcycle or bicycle involvement and significant assault.

The Patient units constitutes 36% of total floor plan. In patient units, the patient room occupies the most space in which a portion of space is allocated for families. This family zone is not calculated under Public & Family. Diagnostic & Treatment area is used to treat outpatient and diagnose both outpatient and inpatient.

According to American Trauma Society (2017), Level I trauma center is a comprehensive regional resource that is a tertiary care facility central to the trauma system. It is capable of providing total care for every aspect of injury from prevention through rehabilitation. Level I include 24 hour coverage by general surgeons and specialty care physicians. Level II also includes 24 hour coverage but limited on specialty physicians but does include tertiary that are referred in Level I. Level III also offer some of the same levels of care that I and II offers but Level III through V are limited and basically stabilize patients before transferring them to a higher level trauma center. It is vital and very important that the hospital’s trauma level matches the community’s needs. It
