Gun violence leaves lasting scars on individuals, families, and communities — but this year, we have hopeful progress to share. At Sentara Norfolk General Hospital (Norfolk, VA) Level I trauma center, gunshot wound cases have dropped for three consecutive years: from 525 in 2022 to 275 in 2024. Still, the work continues. We joined forces with Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters and Eastern Virginia Medical School to #WearOrange for National Gun Violence Awareness Day — honoring survivors, remembering those lost, and recommitting to prevention. Programs like Foresight and Safer Futures, and new legislation like Delegate Nadarius Clarke’s ‘Stop the Bleed’ initiative, are helping turn the tide, but we know it’s a long road ahead.

We know exceptional care starts with caring for those who provide it. When the shift feels long and you’ve given it your all, a space to recharge makes all the difference. That's why many of our hospitals and facilities have unique 24/7 staff lounges designed to meet the needs of our caregivers, day or night. Take a look at the new "Breakaway Bay" at Sentara Princess Anne Hospital. 💛
