Designated Trauma Centers

Georgia Trauma Centers are designated by the State Office of EMS and Trauma (OEMS&T) using standards based on the American College of Surgeons Trauma Center Verification Standards. The OEMS&T has defined in policy the process for trauma center designation, re-designation, and regulation. There are four levels of designation set by OEMS&T with Level I being the most resource-intensive and Level IV being the least resource-intensive. Currently, within Region 5, there is one Level I trauma center and one Level III trauma center.

Non-designated Participating Hospitals

These hospitals have chosen to participate in the system but have elected to not seek designation as trauma centers. They are Georgia-licensed hospitals with an emergency department and varying specialty physician coverage and service line capabilities to treat, stabilize and admit low acuity trauma patients. These hospitals commit to trauma system participation.
