VETERANS ADMINISTRATION HOSPITAL LUNCH, PICNIC, AND SUPPER VISITS:
All,
POC a the VA Medical Center is Paulette Beasley (Recreation Coordinator) (804-675-5000 x3492).
1.  The 2B Hospital Ward can currently handle 6 and there is work underway to increase to 15.  Paulette is in the best position to identify an adequate target group and give us 2 weeks notice when we may have an event.  Further, she requests we consider an on-demand format of visitation for one or two vets.  She will again call us (a couple days in advance) and ask our association for a volunteer(s) to bring food (chicken, pizza, as an example) and spend time over dinner visiting/talking.  The vets really need interaction other persons outside of hospital staff.  I suspect we all would consider either the large or small visitation format acceptable.  Never-the-less, Paulette is the key for notification and I have CC her on this email :-)
2.  I have attached a map to the hospital and hospital floor plans detailing the 2B ward office/dining area (small event) and the multi-purpose room (large event).
3.  We can bring family members however the children have to be at least 12 years old.  This restriction is due to the spreading if infectious agents.
This is a great plan!   It will evolve, over time, into an extremely worthwhile experience for both our association and the hospital.  We will have sufficient notice, in either situation, to react when she calls.  Please monitor your RAT III emails and look forward to those opportunities as they are broadcasted :-)
Thanks
