"West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey’s office provided staff members at Berkeley Medical Center with intense training to target and reduce human trafficking.

The training, which occurred Friday at the hospital, provided attendees with information about human trafficking.

“Medical professionals can be key in recognizing human trafficking,” Morrisey said in a news release. “They are among a small number of people a victim may encounter who can recognize and report suspected trafficking as they provide treatment following an injury or abuse. Without rescue, these victims are reduced to property and forced into dangerous situations that may go undetected for years.”
