UF Health TraumaOne

UF Health TraumaOne The only adult and pediatric Level I trauma program in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. It is a rigorous review of every aspect of the program.
(1)

When UF Health TraumaOne began in 1983, it was the first trauma program in the state of Florida. Today, it is still the only adult and pediatric Level I trauma program in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. On any given day, anyone can end up a patient in the TraumaOne trauma center. Ordinary activities - picking up the kids from school, painting the house, walking the dog - can turn into a l

ife-or-death situation in the blink of an eye. UF Health TraumaOne consists of five components:
- Trauma center
- Flight services
- Communications/dispatch
- Trauma prevention and education
- Emergency preparedness

TraumaOne's highly qualified staff consists of UF Health trauma surgeons, nurses and others with extensive training in caring for trauma patients. Unlike other hospitals in the area, surgeons and other health professionals such as neurosurgeons, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, orthopaedic trauma surgeons and cardiothoracic surgeons are available on campus 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The state's trauma programs are governed by a strict set of standards set by the Florida Department of Health. Every three years, TraumaOne undergoes a site visit in order to maintain its Level I trauma center accreditation. In 2013, UF Health TraumaOne added a third helicopter and implemented a new policy to dramatically cut down on our response time. Instead of basing our helicopters at UF Health Jacksonville, we have strategically placed them around the region ready to fly at a moment’s notice. Locations include Flagler Hospital in St. Johns County, Yulee in Nassau County, and Lake City Regional Airport in Columbia County.

Night flying hits different 🚁🌕

Our TraumaOne North crew was out working the skies over Glynn County last night. Limited visibility and changing conditions make night operations a different kind of challenge, but that’s where strong teamwork makes all the difference. 🚒🚑

A huge thank you to Brunswick Fire for securing the scene and working alongside us to keep the mission safe and seamless. It takes everyone, on the ground and in the air, to make it happen! 💪🏼

Today we recognize Certified Nurses Day and the exceptional professionalism of our TraumaOne Flight Nurses.

Every one of our flight nurses and paramedics holds advanced certifications specific to critical care transport, reflecting their commitment to clinical excellence, safety, and the highest level of patient care. These certifications are more than credentials—they represent countless hours of training, dedication, and real-world expertise in some of the most challenging environments.

We are proud of the skill, knowledge, and leadership our nurses bring to every mission, every patient, every time.

Thank you for setting the standard.
