Union, union, union. Death lists were a sign that your care is based on limited choices. I paid to go to a good VA in NC, but I think the system is overwhelmed with 30 year olds coming to the ER for congestion, migraines, things they should be seeing a pcp for. My really wonderful PA had to retire for serious medical condition, so I quit going.
The VA clinic in Lewisburg WV was housed with some other govt agencies, but had to close for months and months due to air quality. At the time, WV was a union slavery state.
It’s too much trouble to reapply, so I am not planning on going back.
Air quality... btw.. the other agencies were open in the very same building. I called B Sanders office because he was the VA head at the time.
They told me, they didnt want to provide me with bad care, to which I replied.. no care is bad care.
Which good VA in NC? There are several VA’s in NC.
Good news.
Today, I saw something I have never seen before. In the parking lot of the small town grocery store that I patronize, there was parked a big motor home like the kind touring musical groups use. It was from the VA. There was a man seated at a small table under the canopy. Not sure what was going on, but there was one sign that said something about available counseling. So perhaps he was there just to sign up people for that, but I am hoping he was also there help guys that are having trouble with any sort of issues because of the bureaucracy.
This is a very small town in a very sparsely populated county.
