Community Education and Injury Prevention

In addition to helping save lives, HonorHealth's Level I Trauma Centers fulfill their community health mission in two important ways:

  1. They collect and track data of all trauma-related injuries from surrounding communities and rural communities that we serve. This helps health officials throughout Arizona monitor community trauma care needs.
  2. They provide community education programs. Staff frequently visits high schools, grade schools, churches and community centers to promote safety awareness and injury prevention. A primary focus is educating the young about the consequences of unsafe driving practices.

Other areas addressed are motorcycle safety, teen alcohol awareness and the importance of wearing seatbelts.
