VHC Health hosted its annual Trauma Survivors Day, honoring four former trauma patients and their care team on Tuesday, May 16. For many of these patient honorees, this event was the first time they were reunited with the team of healthcare professionals who cared for them after their injury. Both the healthcare team and the honorees expressed gratitude for the opportunity to thank, hug, and simply see one another again after their experience in the Trauma Center.
In May of 2021, the Commonwealth of Virginia designated VHC Health as a Level II Trauma Center. This designation filled a critical community need; previously, the closest trauma center for Arlington County was in Fairfax or Washington, DC. Since becoming a Level II Trauma Center, VHC Health has provided care for nearly 2,000 trauma patients each year.

Divorce is not your fault, nor is it your partner’s, even if you have a laundry list of incidents to point to. Oftentimes people are able to build healthier lives apart, provided they don’t foolishly choose to litigate their divorce. In addition to the exorbitant legal costs, the majority of cases settle out of court due to emotional fatigue and to stop the financial bleeding.
A generation or two ago divorcing couples did not have Divorce Mediation as an option. But today, couples can choose to save their sanity and money by hiring a Mediator for a civil, cost effective and quick divorce process. Mediating couples gain real independence free from the shadow of bitterness and hurt that other contentious options will leave divorcees with. Divorce Mediation is the right option.
AJ Maddeny is a certified mediator who decided to be an Alternative Dispute Resolution practitioner after seeing how negative the outcome of litigation is on both parties. Although he mediates Business-Contracts, HOA, landlord-tenants, evictions, workplace, police complaints and other conflicts he has a soft-spot for family and divorce mediation for the great impact it has on family members, especially children.
