While most hospitals have emergency departments that are always open, Community Regional Medical Center’s Table Mountain Rancheria Trauma Center is the only Level 1 trauma center in the 15,000 square-mile service area between Sacramento and Los Angeles.

What sets our Level 1 trauma center apart from regular emergency departments is that we have the specialists required to treat serious life-threatening injuries 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Having the trauma team always at ready, instead of “on their way,” can literally be the difference between life and death for critically injured patients.
