Expanding Our Capacity to Care at Orlando Medical Regional
More than an emergency department, a trauma center is a state-accredited hospital facility capable of highly specialized, lifesaving treatment for the most critical injuries, including falls, heart attacks and stroke patients.
Increasing Surge Capacity within the Region's Only Level 1 Trauma Center
On June 12, 2016, the Level One Trauma Center at Orlando Health Orlando Regional Medical Center (ORMC), just blocks away from Pulse, was prepared and ready to handle the unimaginable, and care for those in their most extreme time of need. With the rapid influx of patients – the first 36 in 36 minutes – the trauma bays and patient beds within the Emergency Department quickly filled. The incredible teamwork of our dedicated physicians, nurses and staff gave each victim their highest chance at survival and recovery. Every victim who made it to our operating rooms survived.
