Washington Times | Arizona continues to show the country that veterans need health care options

‌

Recently, Arizona made veterans’ health care news as reports emerged of rat infestation in a Phoenix VA nursing home. Residents had to be moved and procedures were brought to a standstill as the Department of Veterans Affairs figured out how to handle the infestation.
