We have had a TON to celebrate in 2024! We have done such an outstanding job at increasing our awareness of the importance in the prevention of CAUTI's and all the improvements we have made demonstrate just how much time and effort has been put forth and it is really starting to show!
I want to take a moment to extend my thanks and congratulations to everyone who played a role behind the scenes in the recent Employee Center and ServiceNow update!
Your hard work, dedication, and long hours in the weeks leading up to the upgrade truly made a difference, ensuring a smooth and successful update. This achievement is a direct reflection of your commitment, and we appreciate all the effort that went into making it happen.
Thank you for a job well done!
One way we always try to show the staff appreciation here at CRBH is through the treat cart. Today we rounded with Valentine's day-themed treats to include cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and chex-mix!
Martha Devinney recently joined the Guest Services department as Director in Roanoke. Her responsibility includes oversight for Guest Services at CRMH, CRCH, and Roanoke ambulatory services including the Riverside Complex, Crystal Spring, Parkview and Tanglewood.
I would like to recognize the extreme clinical expertise of our Carilion Clinic Flight Teams. Recently, while working clinically in CRMH ED, I received a patient from Carilion Flight Paramedic Taylor Powell and Carilion Flight Nurse Lindsey Bixel.
Their flight was a scene response in one of our rural counties. They partnered with local EMS/Fire on a very difficult extrication of the patient. In addition to Rapid Sequence Intubation, they also started blood products while on scene.
This month, Family and Community Medicine leaders unite to reaffirm their commitment to supporting the well-being of our clinical teams. Thank you for your unwavering dedication to delivering excellent care to our community. One team, one culture, one mission!

Wow! Our Cardiac Rehab Team is Awesome!
We are celebrating Cardiac Rehab week from February 9th thru February 15th, with patients.
Our team members deserve to be recognized for all the great care they give to our cardiac patients!
Great Job!
Dr. Ellie Nowak, MD and Dr. Lauren McDaniel, PharmD, both of Carilion’s antimicrobial stewardship team, were recently featured in a prime-time news segment on WDBJ Channel 7. The piece focused on a new research collaboration between Carilion and The Virginial Tech Environmental Engineering team led by Dr. Amy Pruden. The research is looking at shared antimicrobial resistance genes found in both patients and the environment.
