💙 One of our own, going the extra mile, literally.

When a patient mistakenly arrived at LVH–Carbon for a scheduled throat surgery, his daughter was overwhelmed, unsure how to proceed. That’s when Christine Ulshafer stepped in, quickly coordinating with both LVH–Carbon and LVH–Hazleton OR teams to make sure the procedure could still happen that same day.

And in true Carbon spirit, Dr. Tom Po***ck personally drove between campuses to ensure the patient received timely care without delay.

This is what it means to lead with empathy, think outside the box and always put patients first.

For , LVHN is honoring the theme "African Americans and Labor," recognizing the remarkable contributions African Americans have made across various sectors, including industry, health care, and social justice. This year also commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and Maids, led by A. Philip Randolph, a pivotal moment in labor history.

Modern health care has been revolutionized by Black inventors like Dr. Charles Drew, Dr. Patricia Bath, and Otis Boykin. Their innovations in blood banking, cataract surgery, and pacemaker technology have saved countless lives. Vivien Thomas's work in heart surgery paved the way for modern cardiac care.

This month, LVHN colleagues will share personal stories reflecting on how this theme resonates with their lives and careers. Stay tuned for their stories on our social channels and share your own insights on this year's theme in the comments.
