19% of the US population (37.5% of Iowans) live in rural locations but 54% of all traffic deaths occur in these areas. How many adult Level 1, 2, 3, & 4 trauma centers does the state of Iowa have? #ruraltraumamatters #powerofrural

Launched in 2011, National Rural Health Day was an idea that was developed to formally recognize those who work & contribute to making a positive impact on healthcare needs of the people living, working, & easing their families in rural America #ruraltraumamatters #powerofrural

Today is National Rural Health Day. Some of our Trauma team members will be traveling to Story County Medical Center. We are shining a light on rural trauma care and how to improve our trauma system #ruraltraumamatters #powerofrural
