Hi hmpluta, I would say University Hospital in Louisville would get the majority of the traumas as they are a designated level one trauma center. I do believe they are only the second level one (adult) trauma center in Kentucky, followed by the University of Kentucky hospital in Lexington, KY.

Congratulations on being accepted to EKU's ADN program. I remember when I go accepted into nursing school (St. Catharine College) it was such an achievement. If I were you, I'd look and see if EKU has a RN-BSN program. If so, I'd also find out if you can take classes (electives) that would count for any of the BSN credits. It may make getting your BSN a more smoother process--if you're aiming to get your BSN. I'll be starting University of Louisville's RN-BSN program this August and I still have to take Human Nutrition, Statstics, and a sociology course. I can either take them this summer OR take them while I'm in the program. So I would just see if you could take those and get them out of the way so you wont be like me and having to worry about them whenever you go to advance your education. Anywho, best of luck, and study hard! -LogoleeRN
