The Outpatient Pavilion provides follow-up care for the Shock Trauma patients and the UMMC General Surgery service patients in fourteen exam rooms. It serves as the entry point for most emergency readmissions during operating hours.
The Outpatient Pavilion handles a large volume (200+ calls/month) of telephone triage calls for patients. Most patients come to the clinic as outpatients; however, the staff may visit the patients prior to discharge to assist with the coordination of complex patients requiring multiple outpatient services.
Additionally, patients from rehabilitation and extended care facilities return to the Outpatient Pavilion, frequently by ambulance, for follow-up visits. Services are primarily provided in the Shock Trauma Outpatient Pavilion on the ground floor of the Shock Trauma Center.
Services are also provided, such as staff visiting inpatients on 6TAC, 4STA
and the TRU. One hundred percent of the patients are outpatients. Hours of operation
are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. The Outpatient Pavilion's telephone number is 1-855-802-1321.
