VA Hospital planning $30 million expansion

McGuire General Hospital dated Nov 43 - From the WW2 Medical Research website

According to the Style Weekly article the McGuire Veterans Medical Center is recognized as being one of the best in the country in dealing with spinal cord and brain injuries. Receiving $30 million worth of Federal money is going to allow the facility to improve even more.

In late February construction begins on a 20,000-square-foot addition that will serve veterans with traumatic brain injuries. And in late summer the hospital’s large physical therapy unit will be turned into a single large gym.

Later this year, the nine operating rooms — which are about half the size of modern ones — will be expanded, and one or two more added. The cramped emergency room will be redone. Next year, another addition will double the size of the dialysis unit.
