Nobody expects tragedy to strike. But when it does, the dedicated team behind the BryanLGH Trauma Program - which houses the first verified Trauma Center in Nebraska - is ready. The BryanLGH Trauma Program has been carefully designed to meet the needs of critically injured patients as quickly as possible. Trauma specialists are available 24 hours a day to meet those needs. Our program encompasses a Level II Trauma Center, Regional Trauma Registry Program, Performance Improvement Program, Trauma Prevention and Education Program and Trauma Outpatient Clinic for follow-up care.
