SSM Health to cut trauma care at DePaul Hospital Sept. 10
SSM Health is shutting down its trauma center at DePaul Hospital in Bridgeton, the last state-designated trauma center in north St. Louis County. SSM Health officials say it's because so few patients who come to the hospital ER need trauma services, but advocates and EMS workers say the decision could put patients with life-threatening injuries at risk.
