On Thursday, Virginia officials suspended a woman’s nursing license as she faces criminal charges for abusing at multiple babies at a hospital.

The Virginia Board of Nursing imposed a temporary suspension on Erin Strotman, 26, in anticipation of a July 23 hearing. It was reported by WTVU that Strotman was employed at Henrico Doctors’ Hospital NICU when multiple infants sustained bone fractures and other questionable injuries before her arrest in January.

The Washington Post revealed that officials brought additional charges against Strotman in March, though the indictments remained sealed until late April. The indictments provided a timeline alleging that Strotman had been abusing infants for two years.

Strotman had been employed as a nurse at Henrico Doctors’ Hospital since 2019. Per WWBT, the hospital stopped admitting patients to its neonatal intensive care unit in December following incidents where three premature infants suffered bone fractures. Shortly after, authorities identified a total of seven injured infants at the facility.

Strotman was placed on administrative leave in September 2023. She was allowed to return to work a year later, in late 2024, though she was fired in January 2025 — the same day of her arrest

November 10 video footage reportedly showed Strotman force a 5-month-old boy’s feet to his head as he cried out. Medical staff later determined the baby suffered a fractured right femur and tibia and multiple fractured ribs, according to The Washington Post.

Strotman, who is charged with malicious wounding and felony child neglect, remains free on bond as she awaits a May court hearing. The Washington Post reported that Henrico Doctors’ Hospital reopened its NICU unit in February, sparking backlash.
