Introduction
In September, 1984, a vital young man named
Robert Carell
was involved in a devastating motor vehicle accident and treated at
Robert
Wood Johnson University Hospital’s Shock Trauma Unit. The family,
witnessing
the effectiveness of a multi-disciplinary trauma care system,
established
a memorial fund in his name to further the education of healthcare
providers
in the care of the multiple injured patient. The Robert Carell Trauma
Fund
has generously supported an annual education symposium.
