Why Us?
Neurotrauma Program
Our emergency room nurses and physicians specialize in spine and brain injuries in children. The equipment is designed for children — not for adults — so patients have everything they need at the ready. And since Phoenix Children’s relies on cutting-edge research, patients get the most up-to-date treatments.
Our patients get the best in trauma care. We bring top clinical talent from two of our Centers of Excellence: Barrow Neurological Institute at Phoenix Children's and the Pediatric Trauma Center, which is the only verified Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Center in all of Arizona. Treating a neurotrauma patient involves a broad field of specialists throughout the patient’s stay with us. Here are some of the experts who will help you through the process, from the moment you step through our doors to the day you leave:
- Pediatric Trauma Center staff
- Neurosurgeons
- Dedicated ICU nurses
- Diagnosis and monitoring specialists
- Rehabilitation therapists
- Family services staff
