The Department of Emergency Medicine at UNC Chapel Hill is a Level 1 Adult and Pediatric trauma center with aero-medical transport. The diverse and high acuity patient population provides an excellent opportunity to continue to master clinical skills. UNC is a Level 1 trauma center with an annual patient census of approximately 70,000. The total number of inpatient beds are near 860. As a public, tertiary-level hospital, 24 hour subspecialty consultation is readily available in fields such as Cardiology, Neurology, OBGYN, Surgical Sub-specialties including Trauma, Burn, Vascular, Cardiac, Orthopedics, Ophthalmology, and Plastics. Faculty over-see student learners (Residents- EM and Off-service, Medical Students) and provide direct clinical care at this site. Clinical care is further supported by Mid Level Providers and Medical Scribes.
Faculty (which include Fellows) also staff a newly opened community affiliated [campus] ED in Hillsborough, NC, which opened on July 6th, 2015. This 10 bed ED has a current average of 50 patients/day with a projected annual volume of 18,250 visits. Fellows will work an individually determined percentage of their clinical shifts in both ED’s. Patient’s are easily transported to the main Chapel Hill Medical Center ED or inpatient setting as a close relationship exists with the Hillsborough Community ED campus. Clinical Care is supported by Medical Scribes and Mid Level Providers.
