Introducing "First Response," a Series About Health Care Workers and Gun Violence

  • Summary

  • Stay tuned for a new, scripted series from Northwest Reports, launching September 25.

    Harborview Medical Center in Seattle is the only Level 1 Trauma Center in Washington. As a result, it has become ground zero for the major crises of our time, including a rise in gun violence.

    In this three-part series, we hear what it’s like to be a surgeon, nurse or paramedic in our region amid a historic rise in gun-related injuries – and what some medical professionals are doing to help.

    This help goes well beyond the operating table. A new program at Harborview aims to support gunshot survivors and, ultimately, interrupt what is often an ongoing cycle of violence.
