Abstract
The decision was made to implement Trauma Case Management (TCM) at a tertiary trauma centre as a result of the identification of many communication and patient care issues. Investigation into these issues prior to the commencement of a TCM pilot study found that the majority of 104 respondents to a staff satisfaction survey of trauma patient carers felt that trauma patient care was disorganised.
