Injuries are the biggest killer of children and the main
reason they are rushed to a hospital emergency room.
In Bexar County and South Texas, the problem is
growing rapidly, with the number of seriously injured
kids treated at University Hospital up 78 percent since
2010. That's why a first-class pediatric trauma center
is vitally important.
As one of only five Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Centers
in Texas, we stand ready with a team of specialists
to care for critically injured children 24/7.
