Existing VA Medical Center

Text Box: The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and the State of Louisiana (State) propose to utilize federal funding for projects to re-establish medical services in the New Orleans area.

Both the New Orleans Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) and Charity Hospital were severely damaged as a result of Hurricane Katrina. The New Orleans VAMC is currently only providing outpatient services. Other services such as ambulatory, inpatient, and surgical care are being provided outside the New Orleans area and veterans are having to travel to other locations, across Louisiana and beyond, to receive necessary healthcare.

Charity Hospital is currently closed and the healthcare delivery and training formerly provided by Charity, is now being provided at a reduced level at the LSU Interim Hospital.
