At San Jose Medical Center in California we tried to make our transfer
agreements specific since this is what the ACS was looking for. We couldn't
get any of the surrounding facilities to go for this so we settled for
general agreements. We are a Level II and are verified by the ACS.

Subject: [traumanurses] transfer agreements
I am inquiring about requirements concerning hospital transfer agreements.
Deaconess Hospital is seeking ACS Level II verification at this time. Do
transfer agreements need to be specific to traumatic injuries that will be
transferred to that facility or can it be a generic trauma patient
agreement? Your response to this matter would be appreciated. Thank you.
