VAntage Point | VA honors hospitalized veterans during National Salute to Veteran Patients week
VA observes National Salute to Veteran Patients week Feb. 9-15. We honor hospitalized Veterans this week by encouraging people to seek opportunities to volunteer at their local VA medical facilities.
The week of Feb.y 14 each year is your opportunity to thank a special group of men and women. More than 9 million Veterans are cared for in VA medical centers, outpatient clinics, domiciliaries and nursing homes.
“VA values the contributions of our volunteers, donors and partners in helping us keep the promise to America’s Veterans,” VA Secretary Robert Wilkie said. “These community resources confirm to our Veterans that we are a nation that cares and remembers their sacrifices every day.” |
