As part of the Olympic Medical Center family of high-tech patient care facilities, Olympic Memorial Hospital meets the rigorous standards set by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations.
A highly skilled nursing and technical staff supports 126 licensed inpatient beds, a Level 3 Trauma Center, a state-of-the-art surgery suite, 22 private short-stay rooms, and award-winning laboratory, imaging and rehabilitative services.
The hospital Emergency Department sees an average of 26,000 patients a year. As noted, it is a Level 3 Trauma Center, which requires specific training for physicians and nursing staff, the formation of a trauma team at a full or modified level, having 24-hour call coverage for general surgeons and orthopaedic surgeons, and adherence to state policies and procedures.
