Within the sunny Las Vegas valley and surrounding areas, VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System (VASNHS) provides healthcare services to more than 35,000 patients yearly, exceeding 300,000 outpatient visits per year. Access to primary care has been expanded to include Community Based Outpatient Clinics in the nearby cities of Henderson and Pahrump. Inpatient services are provided at the Mike O’Callaghan Federal Hospital as part of a VA/Department of Defense (DOD) Joint Venture that is a national model for VA/DOD Sharing Agreements. Other services provided by VASNHS include psychiatric day treatment, readjustment counseling, and outreach for homeless veterans. Southern Nevada is one of the fastest growing areas in the country. Services provided by VASNHS continue to expand to meet the demands of the dynamic growth.

In Fiscal Year 2003, our VA’s ambulatory care operation will be moving to ten separate locations within Southern Nevada from a single clinical operation. This move is required as a result of a contract default action taken by the VA. The new operational locations are noted below.
