Sarasota Memorial Healthcare Foundation raised more than $1,000,000 to benefit Sarasota Memorial Hospital Trauma and Emergency Services at the inaugural and sold out Hospital Gala. “It is wonderful to see the Sarasota community come together for such an important cause,” noted Mason Ayres, Healthcare Foundation president. “Emergency and trauma services are something that you hope you or a loved one never need, but are glad to know it is there if and when it is needed. When the trauma center opened in 2015, the expectation was to serve about 300-500 patients annually. The growth in patients treated by the Emergency and Trauma Services has required SMH to expand the trauma facilities, adding new equipment and technologies. Before opening the Level II Trauma Unit, most critically injured patients were transported to trauma units in other communities.
