Description

Severe trauma care in Korea has long aimed first at keeping patients alive, with less focus on the long road back to daily life. Shin Ae Lee, Yeon Jin Joo, and Ye Rim Chang surveyed trauma specialists in 2023 to ask how well care teams from many fields now work together. Their online survey went to members of the Korean Society of Traumatology.

Only nine of the forty-one hospitals in the replies held joint meetings with staff outside surgery. Moves to rehab care were rare and often slow, and money limits were named as a main block. Still, most doctors said team care matters, above all with rehab, mental health, and pain care staff. The authors call for a clear system that keeps the patient, not one ward, at the center.
