Managing Trauma Patients in the Community: U of T Trauma (St. Michael’s, Sick Kids, Sunnybrook)

Dear Trauma and ED Colleague,

We are excited to share with you our brand-new Trauma Care White Board Video. Based upon an identified need for trauma education resources, we sought to create a unique video that delivers high yield information on community trauma management and transport. This project was a collaborative effort with input from a diverse group of community and academic pediatric and adult trauma care providers and covers important commonalities and differences when caring for diverse patient populations. Of note, the video briefly references Ontario specific trauma services, however, the core content of the video is applicable to trauma care across Canada

Funding for the video was provided by University of Toronto Trauma & ACS, Sunnybrook Hospital, Sick Kids and St. Michael’s Hospital. The primary authors and developers of the video: Dr. Alun Ackery (SMH), Dr. Suzanne Beno (Sick Kids), and Dr. Kealin Wong (UofT, PGY2) have no conflicts of interest to declare.
