Gun violence is a public health crisis—so what happens when we treat it like one?
In this episode, Dr. Michael Shen sits down with three leaders working on the frontlines of hospital-based violence intervention: Dr. Rob Gore, Attending Emergency Medicine Physician at NYC Health + Hospitals/Kings County in Brooklyn and Founder of Kings Against Violence Initiative (KAVI); Yahsef Johnson, Hospital Program Coordinator for KAVI; and James Dobbins, Executive Director of Guns Down, Life Up at NYC Health + Hospitals/Lincoln in the Bronx.
They discuss the groundbreaking work of NYC Health + Hospitals’ Hospital Violence Interruption Programs, which begin at the victim’s bedside and extend into the community, breaking cycles of violence through intervention and support. From life-saving moments in the ER to long-term prevention efforts, hear how these programs are transforming lives across New York City.
