Emergency medical care has taken a sudden, huge leap forward in Hall County, especially for those with serious injuries. “Now we’ll start to see some of the sicker and more injured patients who otherwise would have been sent to facilities elsewhere,” said Dr. John H. Adamski II, Northeast Georgia Medical Center’s medical director of trauma and acute care surgery, following Monday’s announcement the hospital had received a Level II trauma care designation. “Those patients will be transported to us in a quicker manner ... and that increases our experiences in terms of taking care of the patients.”
