Help
NJTCCA welcomes all problems, as the team consists of general surgeons with the ability to very quickly adapt to the spontaneity of the unprecedented nature of a patient’s injuries. While our team consists of trauma surgeons, they are also general surgeons. In addition to the treatment of trauma patients, the NJTCCA has made a commitment to preventing injury in the communities that we serve.

1. Innovation in rapidly creating a healing COVID-19 environment
We would like to create a unit that consist of individual rooms with windows. The nurse-patient ratio should be 1:2. IV pumps should be located outside of the room.
2. Creativity in promoting staff safety and wellness in the setting of an aerosolized contagion
On the floor, availability of n95 masks, PPE, and other masks should be prevalent. The proper method of donning and doffing the mask, in addition to discarding the mask, should be standard and learned.
3. Commitment to efficiency, integrating technology and logistics support for patients and staff
Daily meetings are necessary to avoid the burnout of physician staff. Giving staff days off will also help prevent burnout. This will need to include rotating a new schedule.
4. Attention to innovative approaches to patient and family communication in the setting of no patient visitors
We have a template that will prove to be very useful. It includes the contact that we are reaching out to, phone number, discussion, and how we provided.
