Open House at Lake Nona Orlando VA Hosptial

Today was the Open House for veterans and families at the Lake Nona VA in Orlando so that veterans could see their hospital. This hospital was built after hearing from veterans what they wanted.

The parking garage for veterans is attached to the hospital, so no getting caught in the rain or blistering heat.  There is a separate garage for employees.

There is a state of the art outpatient pharmacy with several windows instead of just two you're used to seeing at Lake Baldwin. They are geared to handle 1,600 prescriptions a day.

Coming in July is the Patriot Cafe projected to serve 3,000 a day. Plus there will be a Starbucks on the main floor.

Women veterans will have their own area on the 4th floor along with the library, auditorium, simulation labs, medical and educational services.

There will be two mental health units.

Everything other hospitals have, this one has it all but unlike other hospitals, this one is for veterans.

According to the VA everything should be in place and fully operational by the end of this year but they have already moved in many different departments.  More coming soon.
