Not all heroes wear capes, some wear collars. Meet Skippy Jr., Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital's newest therapy dog who’s already making a big impact. Skippy Jr. brings joy and relief wherever his paws take him. He spends his time at the hospital calming anxious nursing students, and comforting patients undergoing treatment, and he even caught a glimpse of himself on TV! This National Animal Therapy Day, we’re celebrating Skippy Jr. and all the therapy animals who help heal hearts in ways medicine can’t. Show your furry friends a little extra love today! #NationalAnimalTherapyDay #TherapyDog #Healing (fb)

Our newest Mobile Care vehicle is now rolling through Southern Virginia—bringing essential medical and social services directly into communities where barriers to care are often the highest. Now serving Danville and the counties of Charlotte, Halifax, Mecklenburg, and Pittsylvania, this mobile unit offers comprehensive primary care, pediatric and prenatal services, wellness education, and help with housing, food access, and transportation. It’s part of our growing Sentara Community Care network—an innovative model aimed at meeting people where they are, especially Medicaid members and those who are uninsured.
