New Parking Garage Construction Begins

We would like to announce we have begun the construction process on our hospital’s new parking garage. Our new four-story, 370-spot parking complex will include a covered walkway to our hospital’s West entrance. This will become our facility’s main entrance so Veterans have immediate, convenient access to routinely utilized services, such as: Release of Information, Eligibility and Enrollment, Billing, Patient Advocates and Veterans Transportation.

While we make these improvements, we will be prioritizing Veteran parking on our campus to help ensure that there is minimal impact to the ease of access to health care while at our facility. We have created new temporary lots and will be providing shuttle services to our entrances to for your convenience. While are working to lessen any inconvenience to you during construction, please allow some extra time (15 minutes) when visiting the hospital for an appointment.  

We appreciate your patience and understanding while we make these improvements to our facility, which will help provide you with an enhanced health care experience.

We anticipate being finished with construction early Spring 2021 and will provide routine updates to keep you informed.

As always, we encourage our Veterans to not delay any essential care and to call 1-800-461-8262, select Option 2, to make face-to-face or virtual appointments. Veterans can also use secure messaging through MyHealtheVet by visiting myhealth.va.gov.

Thank you,

Vince Kane
