Screening Operations:

Incoming vehicles would be diverted onto South VA Loop and directed to enter Parking Lot #1 for pre-screening/screening. Once screened, vehicles would be released to park as usual and enter the medical center at B.85A. This contacts vehicles soon after entering the property and before they have a chance to park and would prevent unscreened patients from entering outlying building.

Any persons requested to leave the facility, who refuse to wear a mask or who refuse to be screened will be escorted off the property by VA Police.

Facility Entrances:

  • All patient access to the main hospital complex (Buildings 27, 67, 77, 85, 85A, 110 & 120) will be through the Emergency Department (ED) entrance in Building 85.
  • All employees reporting for duty will report in the main hospital complex will enter through B.85 with an ID.
