I’ve read that Northeast Georgia Medical Center has received a trauma II designation. My question is twofold: 1) Why are accident victims still transported to other hospitals? 2) If I were involved in an accident and needed a specialist, like a plastic surgeon, on a weekend night, would NGMC have one there to care for me?
