Holocaust Museum sits at the south end of 14th street, it's a easier shot to
GWU based on local patterns. I know I live here and worked in the system

walter reed is not a level one center..  MEDSTAR at Washington hospital
center probably has the most advanced trauma center and experience.  I am
not sure if GW is a level one or not.  I am surprised that they did not take
them to Medstar as it is a straight shot down north capital street to get
there.dn.

Nightline stated that the TWO shooting victims at the museum were taken to  
he "NEAREST" hospital, George Washington.    This museum is very  close to 
any important buildings including the White  House.     I have several 
uestions?

 do not understand,  the DC EMS takes patients to "the closest  hospital" 
nd not a trauma center??

hat level I trauma centers are in this area of Washington DC?

s not Walter Reed Army Hospital a Level I Trauma Center?

n Houston, these patients would have been transported across town,  
ypassing many non-trauma center hospitals to get to a Level I trauma
center.

omething seems to be wrong with this picture of EMS and trauma systems in  
ur nations capital.
