Getting help at the Urgent Care Center and avoiding fees

2023/12/03

This is a rebroadcast of a previous program featuring George Denby who, at the time, was a Supervisory Program Specialist at the SOHI Clinic, for the James A Haley Veterans Hospital in Tampa, FL. He now manages the Fisher House in Orlando, FL. This segment is a discussion of what to do when you need Urgent Care. The Veterans Administration clinics are not set up to handle Emergency Room duties. The Haley VA Hospital is equipped to care for any need in an emergency but, due to the nature of emergencies, time is a factor. Learn from Mr. Denby what you can and should do for VA emergency treatment in your own area. Also included is information on the VA Clinical Contact Centers where you can call in with medical questions. This program is similar to many Talk with A nurse programs but goes much further.
