New Clinic Opens At Rocky Hill Veterans' Facility

ROCKY HILL, CT – A newly renovated and refurnished Rocky Hill residential facility and a new outpatient clinic on the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) campus recently had a grand opening.

“I want to commend Commissioner Saadi and the Department of Veterans Affairs. Veterans deserve top-notch support, and I’m happy these improvements are coming to help veterans in Rocky Hill,” State Senator Matt Lesser (D-Middletown), who also represents Rocky Hill in the Ninth state Senate District, said in a statement. “I’m particularly grateful to private donors, who made these upgrades possible at no additional cost to taxpayers.”

The renovated C-Wing consists of the first double occupancy semi-private rooms at the Rocky Hill residential facility. All other rooms at the facility are four person communal rooms.

The C-Wing project is a milestone for the DVA, as it will also provide new programming in which veterans will work in teams to assist with the maintenance and upkeep of their living areas, according to Lesser's statement.

The DVA’s residential facility is a resource for veterans, providing rehabilitation services and programs all while maintaining a community living environment. Programs available include vocational rehabilitation, educational services and employment search assistance.

Additional programs provided at the residential facility include, but are not limited to, recovery support, nutritional services and spiritual and religious services. Learn more by visiting the Department of Veterans Affair website.
