The Trauma Performance Peer Committee (TPC) is a multidisciplinary meeting chaired by the Trauma Medical Director (TMD) with the assistance of the Trauma Program Manager/Coordinator.

Attendance is also required from representatives from general surgery, and liaisons from orthopedic surgery, emergency medicine, ICU, and anesthesia to identify events; develop corrective action plans; and ensure methods of monitoring, reevaluation, and benchmarking. This committee assesses, addresses, and corrects global trauma program and system issues.
The TPC is a defined process in place, that includes all program-related services, in which we meet regularly, with attendance requirements, compose and record minutes, and works to correct overall program deficiencies to continue to optimize patient care.
The purpose of this committee is to improve trauma care by reviewing selected deaths, complications, and sentinel events with the objective of identification of issues and appropriate responses.

Members of our Trauma Performance Peer Committee (TPC) collaboratively embrace the gaps in the understanding of best practices for trauma patients and recognize the continuous need for performance improvement with improving the outcomes for injured patients.
