Trauma Manager

Description

Responsible for the strategic planning and directing of activities of the trauma program including overseeing personnel, budgeting, performance improvement, injury prevention and regulatory compliance. Reviews and evaluates patient condition reports. May participate with physicians in developing specific services for individual patients. Implements and maintains established practices, procedures and objectives. Employees in this classification supervise three or more full-time equivalent employees every week. Direction is over a permanent status-continuing function, not a collection of employees assigned to complete a project. Management duties include interviewing, selecting and training of employees; setting and adjusting their rates of pay and hours of work; planning and directing their work; appraising their productivity and efficiency for the purpose of recommending promotions or other changes in their status; handling their complaints and grievances and disciplining them when necessary. Management responsibilities include the authority to hire, fire, or promote assigned employees or make recommendations that are given particular weight. Employees may spend time performing many of the same duties as subordinate employees. Under FLSA, this is the exempt job classification for this title. Incumbents in this position must meet the full criteria for exempt status: salary level, salary basis, and duties tests.
