Inpatient Training Facilities
Tampa General Hospital
Tampa General Hospital has served as a primary teaching facility for USF Morsani College of Medicine since 1971. West central Florida's only level 1 trauma center, TGH also serves as a specialty referral center for the region. Within the past few years the hospital completed an expansion that includes a new emergency department and increased bed capacity of approximately 1,000. Located on the waterfront in scenic downtown Tampa, TGH provides an ideal environment for resident training. There are three neurology services at TGH. The General Neurology Inpatient service is for patients that need to be admitted to the hospital for primary neurologic needs with the exception of cerebrovascular disease. This service also provides emergency room coverage for neurology consultations. The Consult Neurology Service provides consultation in regards to all general neurology conditions excluding cerebrovascular disease that are admitted throughout the hospital. The Vascular Neurology service is a comprehensive stroke service comprising TPA administration, intravascular intervention, and neurocritical care management of patients. TGH is tertiary care hospital with aeromed services which provides care in a 200 mile radius. Residents do a majority of their neurology inpatient training at this location.
