UAB Callahan Emergency Department is the only Level 1 Trauma Eye Center in the Southeast region that provides specialty care for patients experiencing eye emergencies. Our nurses gain a specialty skill in treating eye trauma patients through working with renowned ophthalmology specialists, as well as having the opportunity to treat other emergencies that can involve a patient's eyesight. Our department has a Baylor nightshift team in place, so working on the weekend is rarely requested. Our nightshift team works 3-12 hours shifts weekly, 6:00 pm - 6:00 am, Monday through Friday (36 hours weekly).
