Denver Health is thrilled and honored to announce the renaming and dedication of its Trauma Center as the Ernest E. Moore Shock Trauma Center at Denver Health, after Denver Health Director of Surgical Research Dr. Ernest E. 'Gene' Moore. The dedication came at a special ceremony on July 10. During his more than four decades of continued service at Denver Health, Dr. Moore has achieved international recognition as a "godfather" in the field of trauma.
Just after turning 17, Jourdan Block was involved in a severe car crash on New Year’s Eve, 2001, when the vehicle she was riding in crashed into a tree in Denver. Block went to school with Dr. Ernest E. “Gene” Moore’s sons, who heard about the crash involving her and other classmates and immediately called their dad to come down from the mountains to treat her. Her injuries included a shattered pelvis and a burst bladder; both were, at the time, considered to be some of the worst injuries of their types in the country.

Several wildfires burning in Colorado this summer have pushed smoke into the Denver metro area, causing poor visibility and the strong smell of smoke in the air, miles away from where it is burning.
It's just a few days before Independence Day and that means it's the height of the summer vacation season. Summer vacations also mean blood donations are down across the country, including at Denver Health.
Fireworks during the 4th of July are part of the American tradition. Unfortunately, thousands of people (mostly children and teens) are injured while using consumer fireworks.
In 2017, Denver Health Paramedics responded to 344 calls on the 4th of July, according to Lt. Julia Arellano. The typical calls are for alcohol intoxication, unconsciousness, falls and traffic accidents, but fireworks injuries are top of mind.
Nationwide, more than 11,000 people are injured by consumer fireworks and 25 percent of those injuries come from sparklers.
Concussions in sports, whether mild or serious, must all be taken seriously. Concussions are a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by a blow or jolt to the head or to the body, causing the brain to shake within the skull. The impact does not have to be directly to the skull; it can be to the upper body or part of the head. Concussions can affect the way the brain normally works. These changes can happen over hours or days, which explains why often the player might not seem so bad immediately after getting hit.
America's Essential Hospitals, a national trade association, has recognized Denver Health for efforts to reduce preventable harm to patients through a program called Target Zero. The program has reduced harmful patient events by more than 20 percent since it officially started in 2014.
