Today is a major milestone in our battle against COVID-19. Dignity Health - Community Hospital of San Bernardino began vaccinating frontline health care workers this morning after receiving the first doses of coronavirus vaccines just yesterday. The first person to be vaccinated at CHSB was Janet Wilson, RN, Nursing Director of Med/Surg and Telemetry. Janet was followed by James Arden, Respiratory Therapist; Felix Laryea, Senior Director for Ancillary and Support Services; Dennis Scott, HR Manager; and Octavius Quijada, MD, Anesthesiology. We now see a light at the end of the tunnel thanks to the remarkable effort by researchers, scientists and health care providers. 🧡
Today is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. Trafficking in persons is a particular type of violence that is pervasive yet widely misunderstood. It affects every country, including the United States. In 2019 alone, there were 11,500 tips of human trafficking reported to the U.S. National Human Trafficking Hotline. It is a common misconception that victims are locked away or hidden, but they are often in plain sight such as at bars, casinos, and nail salons. Also, trafficked persons may not reach out for help because they may blame themselves, feel stigmatized, or do not know their rights in America. #UnitedAgainstViolence
