CHAMBERCONNECTION CREATING CONNECTIONS & RELATIONSHIPS TO GROW HALIFAX COUNTY

Halifax County is a unique and robust community, a well-blended mixture of businesses, including a strong industrial presence, a thriving technology field, a host of small businesses that continue to flourish and bloom, a healthy presence of large corporations, and a tenacious agricultural industry while still offering that “small hometown feel” that our citizens know and love. The Halifax County Chamber of Commerce is a constant force in fostering the growth and strengthening of our businesses and community while maintaining the hometown feeling that we call “Halifax.” The Chamber is a constant voice for over 350 members, consisting of all types of businesses that represent our growing county.

growth. The Chamber is a continuing voice for advocacy, being a vital and constant representation to its members at a local level, as well as in the state and federal levels.

The Chamber staff, board and volunteers work diligently to educate our lawmakers about issues that concern businesses in our county.

Developing a seamless education and workforce system that supports quality education and workforce development programs that ensure that parents, counselors, administrators and educators have the resources they need to aid students in career exploration is a major priority of the Chamber because they have the relationships needed to foster relationships between the school system, colleges and businesses to support economic growth and local workforce development.

SUPPORTING SPONSORS

The Chamber’s dedication to advocacy for Halifax County and the education of students led them to play a vital part in the Yes for Halifax Schools Education Referendum that proposed a one percent sales tax increase to be used for school construction in Halifax County.

It is through the hard work and dedication of the Halifax County Chamber of Commerce, its staff, board, ambassadors and numerous volunteers that Halifax County is the perfect blend of business, pleasure and community enrichment, providing each of us with such a great community to call “home.”

“We’re being very strategic about the way we go about this, and instead of teaching in silos, we’re building a program that will be completely interdisciplinary,” Lineburg said. “We’re moving toward a complete, fullcareer center model. It’s very innovative and progressive.”

Encouraging the new direction, Lineburg and district officials conducted a career and technical education audit.

“It was very important for us to find out what the community wants and needs,” Lineburg said. “We listened and looked at jobs and offerings and talked to industry to make sure the programs we are offering are matching the community needs.” Under the leadership of Dr. Deborah Woltz, Halifax County High School is moving to establish eight schools-within-a-school including options in business, finance, and marketing; agriculture, food, and natural resources; health and medical sciences; law, public safety, and administration; human services, hospitality, and education; science, technology, engineering, and mathematics; trade and industry; and a School of the Arts. Some classes are being taught in collaborative settings such as biology and fitness as well as English and social studies.

Due to the foresight, planning and generosity of county leaders for many years, Halifax County is quite fortunate to offer post-high school education locally. The Southern Virginia Higher Education Center provides access to higher education, 

MEETING THE NEED In June 2019, Sentara Halifax Regional Hospital introduced medical stabilization services to help people overcome withdrawal symptoms from drug and alcohol addictions through New Vision medical stabilization service.

“Medical stabilization for addiction is a new service for us, but we are optimistic about the positive impact that this offering will have on our community and the surrounding area,” said Dr. Terrance Truitt, hospitalist at Sentara Halifax Regional Hospital.

This service is offered to adults with a medically supervised hospital stay for inpatient stabilization, which usually lasts three days. The inpatient stay will include prescreening, assessment, admission, medical stabilization and discharge planning. Upon admission, an assessment will be completed with an evaluation of the patient’s medical history, a physical, a laboratory workup and nursing assessment.

Discharge planning will occur prior to leaving the hospital; the patient will be referred to appropriate community-based treatment programs to help prevent relapse and continue their treatment.

MEET THE HOSPITAL’S CHIEF NURSE EXECUTIVE Also in 2019, Sentara Halifax Regional Hospital welcomed a new chief nurse executive. Dr. Brian Zwoyer, who possesses a wealth of health care experience, joined Sentara in September.

Dr. Zwoyer has spent the last five years as the director of inpatient surgical services, adult critical care, and the emergency department at University of Virginia Health System in Charlottesville, Virginia. He previously worked for six years as a nurse manager in digestive health, general surgery and transplant urology at UVA in Charlottesville, Virginia. Dr. Zwoyer also spent seven years serving in the United States Army. In 2012, he received the Distinguished Nurse Manager Award from the University of Virginia Health System, and he is an AONE Nurse Manager Fellow.

“I’ve been a nurse for 22 years, and of those, I have spent 16 in nursing leadership,” Dr. Zwoyer said. “This experience, coupled with my education, has prepared me for the challenges this new opportunity will offer.

I am looking forward to getting to know the staff at Sentara Halifax Regional Hospital and using my skill 
