Abstract

Injuries occur and have been identified as a priority Global Public Health Concern, yet the coordinated "Grassroots to Global" trauma systems have not yet been sufficiently developed or put in place. Disparities continue and the Rural Reality of Trauma Outcomes has been well-documented. It is time we fix "Stone Soup"!
