• New Puller Veterans Care Center opens in Warrenton (theriver953.com) — A new 128-bed Puller Veterans Care Center has just opened in Warrenton, offering long-term care, memory care, and short-term rehab for Virginia veterans in Northern Virginia and beyond. Built on the historic former Vint Hill Farms Station site in Fauquier County, the state-of-the-art facility features private rooms in small “households” designed for comfort and dignity. 
• Documentation: A Regulator's Perspective on EMS Professionalism, Accountability, and the Future (jems.com) — Warrenton’s Airlie House gets a notable shout-out as the site of a landmark 1969 EMS conference that first pushed for standardized, computerized ambulance records. Building on that history, the author explains why today’s EMS documentation is crucial for patient care, legal protection, research, and future AI tools, urging clinicians to capture both medical details and on-scene realities.
