Answer 3

The best place to go is to talk to the vets at the VAMC, I worked spinal cord and basically the care is mild to irreprehensible r/t government cutbacks on staff. When going there when I was laid off as a student nurse there were many quads still sitting up late into the evening but being understaffed there were not enough people and the sad thing is that the ones they have don't want to work and once in are difficult to fire whereas nursing home is different, try to talk to the vets themselves, they are more than willing to talk and the drug and alcohol ward, well I would not even want to discuss the drama that goes on there,out on pass, get high, back in, complete misuse of the system although checks and balances are in place.
