2009/2010 - State President's Project
Rebecca Smith
Vision of the Lyons VA Medical Center
To be a patient centered integrated health care organization for veterans providing excellence in health care, research and education; an organization where people choose to work; and active community partner and a backup for national emergencies.
Mission of Lyons Medical Center
Honor America’s veterans by providing exceptional health care that improves their health and well being.
The Lyons Veterans hospital is located in Lyons, NJ. There are two main campuses, the one in Lyons and one in East Orange. There are also a variety of smaller outpatient satellite campuses around the state. It serves to provide veterans with general medical, psychiatric, and long-term care as well as a full range of medical and surgical subspecialty care. The veterans are cared for by teams of physicians, nurses, therapists and social workers. They work together to develop new programs that not only help the veterans, but serve as models to the rest of the health care field.
This State President’s Project will be to raise funds to donate a Wii system and games to the hospital for it’s patients use. This item is one that is on the wish list of items that the patients would enjoy using. Voices will be sold on two items to help raise money for the Wii system.
