As a not-for-profit organization, it’s important that we avoid conflicts of interest. To that end, each year we send a questionnaire to staff who may influence purchasing or operational decisions at Carilion, to identify potential conflicts of interest.
This year’s questionnaires will be sent on Monday, April 15.
On Wednesday, June 12, from 2 a.m. to 5 a.m., we will upgrade CRMH’s power source.
This is the fourth planned update to the hospital’s power grid; the first three were in February, April, and May and went smoothly thanks to the engagement and collaboration of teams across Carilion.
During the upgrade’s 3-hour window, the hospital will be on full generator power for about 45 minutes, and there will be planned periodic outages/downtimes at CRMH.
We submitted the Certificate of Public Need (COPN) application on May 1 and are awaiting approval from the Commonwealth. In the meantime, we have proposed partnering with Riverdale Southeast, LLC, the Roanoke-based developers who are repurposing the industrial Riverdale property near our Carilion Medical Center campus.
If you are interested in the broad range of research projects our staff, faculty, residents, fellows and students are leading, you won’t want to miss this year’s Research Day.

If you are a frequent shopper at the online Carilion Logo Store, you may notice some changes in the coming weeks.
As of Tuesday, April 2, a new vendor partner, Source4, will be running the online store.
The new Logo Store will provide an improved interface, better customer service and, in the coming months, a wider variety of Carilion-branded items!
Source4 will also service custom orders of items not regularly stocked.

Nursing school can be tough, especially when you are thinking about how to pay for it. If you are enrolled in nursing school now, the Carilion Clinic Foundation has scholarships to help.

"By supporting their educational goals, we are not just aiding in their professional growth, but also fostering a stronger, more skilled workforce to serve our community.”
Four scholarships are available.
