Trauma Registrars and TSN Staff
The TSN is a national program developed by the American Trauma Society. It helps trauma patients and their families connect with one another and rebuild their lives after a serious injury. The TSN staff acts as liaisons for patients and their families, introducing them to the program and giving them access to resources aimed at helping them rebuild their lives. TSN is a free service to trauma survivors and their families. Trauma Survivors Network

The Trauma Registrar is an integral member of the Trauma Center. Trauma registry data is abstracted and entered by the Trauma Registrar. Trauma registry data is used internally in the continuous performance improvement process at the medical center. Data is reported to the National Trauma Data Bank and the Tennessee State Trauma Registry. High-quality data begins with high-quality data abstraction and entry — it is the trauma registrar who performs this task and then analyzes the data and prepares it for distribution in its most useful format.
