Program Highlights
UR Medicine Golisano Children’s Hospital (GCH) has been designated as a Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Center by the American College of Surgeons and New York State, the highest possible classification for trauma care and evidence that GCH is delivering best-practice treatment, education, and research in the field. In a national environment where youth gun violence is soaring, the Level 1 classification means that GCH is able to provide both life-saving treatment to victims and offer public education to communities and patient intervention to prevent recidivism.
