Overview

The Trauma/Burn Unit is a high energy unit focused on the intensive care and treatment of patients that have experienced critical illnesses as a result of trauma or burn injuries. Because this unit cares for complex patients, there is a heightened opportunity for learning and growth alongside a team of experienced nurses, doctors, respiratory therapists, social workers, pharmacists and other health care professionals.

The Trauma/Burn Unit registered nurse will be provided with the education and certifications needed to develop and grow in this role.

Springfield Memorial Hospital is a Regional Burn Center which is one of a limited number of hospitals in the state of Illinois who provide care to burn patients, serving a wide region across central and southern Illinois. The ICU provides intensive care for burn patients before transferring the patient to a lower level of care and rehabilitation.
