The recent arrest of a nurse involved in a disturbing series of injuries to newborns at Henrico Doctors’ Hospital in Richmond, Virginia, has left our community reeling. It’s unimaginable that harm could come to our most vulnerable children in a place designed for their safety. How could such incidents go unnoticed for so long? We must demand answers and accountability now.

We call on Henrico Doctors’ Hospital to take immediate action to prevent future tragedies by overhauling their NICU hiring practices and security measures.

Between 2023 and 2024, seven infants in the NICU were found with unexplained fractures and breaks. The charges against the former nurse for malicious wounding and felony child abuse further highlight the urgent need for improved oversight and internal controls at the hospital.

We demand that hospital leadership implement rigorous monitoring systems, including comprehensive camera surveillance with regular audits, enhanced training, and strict vetting processes for all NICU staff. Additionally, there must be transparent incident reporting mechanisms that are accessible to parents.

Sign this petition to urge Henrico Doctors’ Hospital to reform their NICU practices, ensuring the safety of every child and peace of mind for all parents.
