The hospital first received designation as a Level II trauma center in 2016 by the State Health Commissioner from the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Health.
Henrico Doctors’ Hospital is the only trauma center in western Richmond offering a range of services such as a specially trained trauma team and board-certified trauma surgeons across varying specialties. In addition, trauma experts specializing in orthopedics, neurosurgery, anesthesiology, plastic and facial trauma, thoracic, gynecological/obstetrical, cardiac, and other surgical specialties are on call and immediately available 24/7.
The verification program was established by the ACS in 1987 and is headed by the verification review committee, an ad hoc team of the Committee on Trauma of the ACS. The ACS is a scientific and educational association of surgeons founded in 1913 to raise the standards of surgical education and practice and to improve the care of the surgical patient.
