Acute Injury Care
Because CDC recognizes that injuries continue to occur, despite our best efforts at prevention, the Division of Injury Response (DIR) at CDC’s Injury Center seeks to improve outcomes for those who have survived severe injuries and to improve acute injury care practices. To meet this challenge, DIR works with national and international organizations spanning the continuum of injury prevention and acute injury care, including those responsible for emergency medical services and emergency medicine and trauma surgery, other public health organizations, other federal agencies, and the corporate sector.
