I have only been, on a regular basis, to the Memphis facility. I spent 6 weeks in the PTSD in-patient program at North Little Rock.
I have watched different stories on TV about how some VA facilities are poorly run. I am sure some on here may have some ideas. I believe there is a patient advocate in most hospitals. I do not know if this works or not. There should also be a representative from some of the larger veteran groups, such as American Legion, VFW, DAV etc., on site, that can help, as well as some volunteer groups.... Before you go somewhere else, I would try to let these folks help. Is your husband a member of any of these organizations ? All the best.

May God Bless,

Larry
