We were honored to welcome VA Secretary Doug Collins and VISN 4 Network Director Fernando Rivera to our facility for a visit focused on the Veterans, their families, and employees who make our mission possible.
During his visit, Secretary Collins toured several areas of our facility, including the Oncology Unit, Flu Shot Clinic, Primary Care Waiting Area, and the newly opened Canteen/Retail Space. Along the way, he spent time meeting with Veterans, spouses, staff members, and facility leadership, learning more about their experiences and the care and services provided throughout our organization.
We were proud to showcase the outstanding work being done every day by our dedicated team and the positive impact those efforts have on the Veterans and families we serve.
As part of the visit, Secretary Collins also recognized six employees during a special coining ceremony for their exemplary service and commitment to Veterans, fellow employees, and VA's mission. Their dedication reflects the compassion, professionalism, and excellence demonstrated by our workforce each day.
Thank you to Secretary Collins and Director Rivera for taking the time to visit our facility and see firsthand the exceptional care and service being provided to those who have served our nation.
