Trauma Program Manager

I'm just looking for advice, tips, and guidance; just some insight.  I have 8+ years of critical care experience in various ICU's.  I got my TNCC, as our facility was just becoming certified as a trauma center.  That being said, I observed the process of getting certified, and I've participated in a few trauma scenarios.  That is the extent of my hands on experience.  

I live rurally, and the nearby level IV hospital has a position opening for trauma program manager.  I applied because I meet all the qualifications in the job description.  I am a fast learner and will retain everything I'm shown.  I have great problem solving skills, communication skills, and time management skills.  It seems like a major portion is auditing, process improvement, and ensuring the program is meeting regulatory standards.  All these things I am capable of managing.  It's new and it's exciting, but I need some perspective and honest opinions of trauma nurses.

    I've worked in trauma for most of my career. I'm always weary of managers who have limited experience in what they're managing.

    That being said anything can be learned and in a level IV it'll be a lot of stabilize and transfers. The only way to see if it would be a good fit is by speaking with them so good luck and I hope it works out!
