STAC Adopts Level 3 and 4 Designation Criteria Clarification Updates

At their December 2022 meeting the State Trauma Advisory Council adopted several helpful updates to clarify the Level 3 and Level 4 Trauma Hospital Designation Criteria. No changes to original intent were made except that hospitals may now stock type-O blood rather than type O-negative specifically. The updates became effective on January 1, 2023.
