Congratulations to our team at Bon Secours -- St. Francis Medical Center (Richmond, Virginia), who recently received the American Heart Association's Get With The Guidelines®- Coronary Artery Disease STEMI Receiving Gold Plus with Target: Type 2 Diabetes recognition for their commitment to offering rapid, research-based care to people experiencing a specific type of heart attack known as an ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), known to be more severe and dangerous than other types of heart attacks. Each year, about 285,000 people in the U.S. experience this type of heart attack, caused by a complete blockage in a coronary artery. Nearly 40% of people who go to the emergency room with acute coronary syndrome are diagnosed with a STEMI. Like all heart attacks, this requires timely treatment to restore blood flow as quickly as possible. Recognition as a STEMI Receiving Center is designed to showcase hospitals that provide 24/7 support for STEMI. These important facilities coordinate with a network of referring hospitals and emergency medical services to provide guideline-directed STEMI and NSTEMI care. “Good help for those in need begins with EMS," shares Al Thompson, our EMS coordinator. "We are excited to partner with EMS to bring the best care to our communities and patients. This is the team’s fifth year in a row of achieving the AHA Gold Plus Award! Congratulations and appreciation of everyone involved in helping us achieve this award.” This recognition is a testament to the commitment of our team at St. Francis Medical Center to provide quality care to our patients and community. Congratulations, team!

On July 1st, the Birthplace at Mary Immaculate Hospital in our Hampton Roads, Virginia market began offering nitrous oxide to laboring mothers. This is a safe and effective way to help mothers relax during labor without being disoriented. It is self-administered and takes effect quickly. Studies have shown it does not affect infant alertness and does not effect breastfeeding.

Our society can try to convince us that life is about ourselves. In this “Mission Moment,” it is helpful to be reminded that true happiness flows, not from focus on self, but through the relationships we develop and the purpose of a better world we can pursue together. At Bon Secours, our Mission extends compassionate care beyond the walls of our hospitals and medical facilities. We are committed to providing good help to those in need no matter the time or the place. We’d like to share encouraging and inspiring quotes on our social media channels. It is our hope that these "Mission Moments" will provide you with encouragement no matter where you are in life. #MissionMoments

We sat down with Timothy Schaffner, MD, FACS, FASMBS at Bon Secours Surgical Specialists and Maryview Medical Center to find out a little more about what made him get into bariatrics. What made you decide to get into bariatrics? “First, I really enjoyed the surgeries as a trainee. I liked foregut anatomy, and I liked the technical challenges of learning bariatric operations, which can be very complex. I have also always loved the satisfaction that comes from seeing a successful post operative bariatric patient, and the tangible quality of life improvements that I can help them achieve.” Did anyone inspire you to become a doctor? “I’ve had mentors along the way who helped me be the surgeon I am today, but it seemed as if I just always wanted to be a doctor as a kid.” Were you considering any other specialties in medical school? “I considered trauma/critical care for a time, and I had a lot of exposure to it in the military. But the hours were much more unpredictable, and I felt like doing that job at a high level as I got older would be harder.” What other passions / hobbies do you have outside of work? “Much of my time outside of work is spent with my daughters, as well as my wife. We like going to the beach and recently purchased an RV to go camping at many lovely places right in our backyard in Virginia. I also enjoy golf, cooking, and playing guitar.”
