The Utah Department of Public Safety’s Bureau of Emergency Medical Services has certified Intermountain Health American Fork Hospital as a Level III Trauma Center.

Intermountain Health American Fork Hospital has received verification as a Level III Trauma Center by the Utah Department of Public Safety’s Bureau of Emergency Medical Services, recognizing the hospital’s dedication to providing quality trauma and emergency care for injured patients.

Certified trauma centers undergo vigorous reviews and meet the essential criteria to ensure trauma care capability, as outlined by the American College of Surgeons’ Committee on Trauma.

The Level III verification means that Intermountain Health American Fork Hospital provides prompt assessment, resuscitation, surgery, intensive care, and stabilization of injured patients and emergency operations – including 24-hour immediate coverage by emergency medicine physicians, and rapid support by general surgeons and anesthesiologists.

“This verification only reiterates the fact that American Fork Hospital is committed to do what is necessary to provide care to patients in our community,” said Jason Wilson, president of Intermountain Health American Fork Hospital. “I’m so proud of our trauma team and their dedication to the health and well-being of patients in our community.”

American Fork Hospital, which previously was designated a Level IV Trauma Center, cares for more than 700 trauma patients annually, with a significant number of those traumas being bicycle accidents, falls, car accidents, and motorcycle crashes.

“The American Fork Hospital trauma team is grateful for the strong relationships with our local emergency medical services across the community,” said Kourtney Dinehart, RN, trauma program director for Intermountain Health American Fork Hospital. “It’s that teamwork that helps us meet and exceed these national standards and provide quality care to our patients.”

There are five separate categories in the American College of Surgeons’ Committee on Trauma program. Each category has specific criteria that must be met by a facility seeking that level of verification. Hospitals also must undergo an on-site review by a team of experienced site reviewers.

With the certification, American Fork Hospital is now fully certified and designated as a Level III trauma center for the next three years.
