Trauma Center Designation and COVID-19<\/h2>\n

4\/4\/2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

On March 12, 2020, Governor Ralph Northam declared a state of emergency<\/a> in the Commonwealth of Virginia in response to the continued spread of the novel Coronavirus Disease known as COVID-19.\u00a0The White House also declared COVID-19 a national emergency<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Pursuant to these emergency declarations, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and at the direction of State Health Commissioner, the Virginia Office of Emergency Medical Services (OEMS) suspended all triennial trauma center verification visits scheduled to take place during 2020 (provisional trauma centers were excluded from the one-year extension.)<\/p>\n

Trauma site designation and reverification reviews resumed in 2021. OEMS is grateful for the diligence, care and compassion of the hospitals and personnel on the front lines who have continued to provide excellent care through the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n
