Military Times | Ant infestation at Georgia veterans facility becomes the latest health care scandals for VA
Lawmakers want to know why Veterans Affairs officials did not react quicker to ant-infested conditions at a department-run community center in Georgia, the latest in a series of health scandals at regional veterans care facilities.
Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee Chairman Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., said he was “ shocked, horrified and downright maddened” by reports that one dying veteran was bitten more than 100 times by the insects before staff at the Eagle’s Nest Community Living Center near Atlanta made any changes. At least two other patients there also suffered bites from the ants. |
