AROUND NSU EMERGENCY ROOM START OF BIGGER COMPLEX A new emergency room on the Fort Lauderdale/Davie Campus of NSU will serve as the cornerstone of a future medical complex, which will include a teaching and research hospital. Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) East Florida opened Westside Emergency Services, part of Westside Regional Medical Center (WRMC), in partnership with NSU. The facility is located in University Park Plaza at 3476 South University Drive. Staffed by board-certified doctors, the facility has 16 private treatment rooms, a designated trauma room, a full-service labora- tory, a pharmacy, advanced imaging equipment, and digital X-ray units. Emergency transportation is provided to patients requiring continued care at an in-patient hospital. For NSU, the emergency services facility will become a residency site offering valuable hands-on training to the university’s D.O. and M.D. program students and provide various clinical training opportunities for students in other health professions programs. n Revolution of the eye: ModeRn ARt And the BiRth of AMeRicAn television This is the first exhibition to explore how avant-garde art influenced the look and content of early network TV from the late 1940s to the mid-1970s.
