LA General 首席执行官 Orozco 获表彰：医院与妇女中心联手守护暴力幸存者
洛杉矶县卫生服务部11月6日发布消息，洛杉矶综合医疗中心（LA General Medical Center）首席执行官豪尔赫·奥罗斯科（Jorge Orozco）在东洛杉矶妇女中心（ELAWC）成立50周年庆典上获得表彰，表彰其推动医院与社区机构合作、为暴力幸存者提供支援的领导工作。LA General 位于加利福尼亚州洛杉矶县洛杉矶市。
这场名为「Mujeres de Paz」的50周年庆典于10月30日举行。获表彰的原因，是 LA General 与东洛杉矶妇女中心之间长期的合作：该中心在 LA General 院区内运营服务，包括通过其「医院紧急陪伴响应团队」（HEART）提供的保密紧急庇护所——幸存者在出院后能有一个安全的临时落脚处，同时获得咨询、维权倡导等支持。
县卫生服务部表示，这一模式此前被 LA General 称为首创的家庭暴力协调响应模式，其出发点是：对经历暴力的人来说，医疗救治结束并不等于安全与恢复的开始。
东洛杉矶妇女中心执行主任芭芭拉·卡波斯（Barbara Kappos）说：「豪尔赫·奥罗斯科一直是重要伙伴，帮助我们加强并扩大在 LA General 的服务。他的领导营造了医疗与幸存者倡导携手工作的环境，让我们在个人和家庭最脆弱的时刻触及他们。」
奥罗斯科说：「当一个人经历暴力后来到 LA General，我们的责任不能止于医疗结束。他们值得有一个安全的地方可以求助、有人站在他们身边、有一条通向恢复的路。我深感荣幸获得这份认可。」
两家机构的合作已有数十年，涵盖院内危机干预、倡导、紧急庇护与医护人员培训。东洛杉矶妇女中心成立于1976年，50年来为洛杉矶各地的幸存者与家庭提供服务。本次庆典的其他获表彰者包括洛杉矶县县政委员希尔达·索利斯（Hilda L. Solis）、Visión y Compromiso 创始执行主任玛丽亚·莱穆斯（Maria Lemus），以及 AltaMed 基金会主席佐伊拉·埃斯科巴（Zoila D. Escobar）。

LA General CEO Jorge Orozco Honored for Partnership Supporting Survivors of Violence
The Los Angeles County Department of Health Services announced on November 6 that Jorge Orozco, Chief Executive Officer of LA General Medical Center, was honored at the East Los Angeles Women's Center's (ELAWC) 50th Anniversary Mujeres de Paz Gala on October 30, recognizing his leadership in advancing a partnership that supports survivors of violence. LA General is in Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California.
The recognition highlights a longstanding partnership between LA General and ELAWC. Through the collaboration, ELAWC operates services on the LA General campus, including a confidential emergency shelter through its Hospital Emergency Accompaniment Response Team (HEART), offering survivors of domestic and interpersonal violence a safe, temporary place to stay following hospital discharge, while connecting them with counseling, advocacy and other resources.
The county said the integrated approach has previously been described by LA General as a first-of-its-kind coordinated domestic violence response model, recognizing that medical treatment alone may not address the immediate safety and recovery needs of people experiencing violence.
"Jorge Orozco has been an important partner in helping the East Los Angeles Women's Center strengthen and expand our presence at LA General," said Barbara Kappos, Executive Director of ELAWC. "His leadership has helped create an environment where healthcare and survivor advocacy work together, allowing us to reach individuals and families at some of their most vulnerable moments."
"When someone comes to LA General after experiencing violence, our responsibility cannot end when their medical treatment is complete," said Orozco. "They deserve a safe place to turn, people who will stand beside them, and a pathway toward healing. I am deeply honored to receive this recognition."
The relationship between LA General and ELAWC spans several decades and includes hospital-based crisis intervention, advocacy, emergency shelter and education for healthcare professionals. Founded in 1976, ELAWC has spent five decades providing services to survivors and families throughout Los Angeles. Other honorees at the celebration included Los Angeles County Supervisor Hilda L. Solis; Maria Lemus, Founding Executive Director of Visión y Compromiso; and Zoila D. Escobar, President of the AltaMed Foundation.
