Honoring Service – Empowering Health VISN 8 2013 Report to the Community
Honoring Service – Empowering Health – The VISN 8 2013 Report to the Community highlights some of the accomplishments we made in 2013, but most importantly, it focuses on the major cultural shift we've been making these past few years in how we offer care and relate to Veteran patients and their families.
"It is our pleasure and privilege to serve our nation's Veterans. You have my word that we will continue to work hard to create for them a culture of health and well-being that exceeds your highest expectations."
