For THIS, the Fort McClellan Veterans
are dying waiting on the freaking
GAO report for THEM which is incredibly
backlogged while they Piddle and Diddle
around on LOW PRIORITY shit like this!
If this doesn't spell B-O-N-E-H-E-A-D
then I don't know what does !!!

This is what happens when a bunch of
incompetent 20 year olds are allowed
to front drive a system where the more
experienced and in the know veterans
who have spent entire lifetimes in the
system are hijacked as unwilling passengers
in the great national car ride to nowhere.

Auditors: Privacy lacking at some VA hospitals

By KIMBERLY HEFLING
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Government auditors say Veterans Affairs Department hospitals and clinics aren't always making sure women veterans have privacy when they bathe and receive exams.

The Government Accountability Office says no VA hospital or outpatient clinic it reviewed was fully compliant with VA privacy requirements.

In an audit released to Congress, GAO investigators found facilities where gynecological exam tables faced the door, and facilities where there weren't locks on non-private restrooms.

Thousands of women veterans are returning from Iraq and Afghanistan and pouring into the VA's health system. A majority are between ages 20 and 29.

VA officials told the auditors that space constraints pose challenges, but it's working on improvements.
