With much appreciation for his many years of service to Carilion and our community, please join us in congratulating Nathaniel L. (NL) Bishop, D.Min., Chief Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Officer, on his retirement this summer. His last day will be July 26.
We have several Employee Resources Groups (ERG) at Carilion made up of a collection of employees who share a passion for diversity and inclusion. Each group has a mission they focus on to help Carilion achieve its goals.
Our Military Community ERG's goal is to foster a welcoming environment for all past and present military service members, their families and supporters – and they recently put into play some creative ways to support the military community.
As of Monday, Aug. 5, we are using ServiceNow's Employee Center to report technical issues and submit TSG/Health Analytics requests.
On June 8, Pediatric Palliative Care held a memorial service dedicated to families within our system who have experienced the loss an infant or child. This marks a significant return after being unable to offer it for several years and they were excited to reintroduce this important service.
Families joined staff from Child Life, the Healing Arts Program, Hospice, and Chaplaincy Services at Mill Mountain Park.
It was a great Carilion Proud Week! Take a look at the photos above from various celebrations across the system.

In the meantime, here are a few things to remember:
In today's world, many of us live with constant information overload. Each day is filled with too many words, videos, memes, distractions, and on and on. It's hard for our brains to keep up and know what information stays and what can go, but as healthcare professionals and Carilion employees, we're responsible for knowing quite a bit.
To help you know more, with less, we are on a quest to "reduce the noise" and communicate with you better! Help us give you the information you need the way you want it. Take the Employee Communications survey by Friday, May 31!
