MEMPHIS, Tenn. (localmemphis) – U.S. Senator John Boozman of Arkansas visited the Memphis VA hospital Wednesday to see how the facility has made improvements.
While there Senator Boozman learned more about the center’s mental health program and the newly renovated Women’s Center. He told Local 24 News the new Women’s Center is one reason why the VA has gone from one of the worst in the county to one of the best.
“We have a lot of women veterans and we’re really proud of the efforts that they do here. It’s state of the art. Probably even one of the best in the country in that regard.” says Senator Boozman.
In addition to helping Memphis veterans, the Memphis VA Medical Center also provides care to veterans in Eastern Arkansas.
