Don't shy away from a smaller ER an hour or so away from the major trauma centers, you'll see A LOT more! I started out in a 10 bed ER in SWFL and I swear more "fresh" trauma than I do now at a level 1, most of what we get now is "recycled" ans once in a while I find myself missing the smaller hospital with fewer resources.
