From the Department of Veterans Affairs:

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) New Jersey Health Care System will hold an official ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Tinton Falls Veterans’ Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) on Monday, October 3, beginning at 10 a.m.  The new, larger CBOC opened in July and replaces the clinic formerly located on the base at Fort Monmouth.  The CBOC is located at The Atrium, 55 Gilbert Street, Building 4, in Tinton Falls and has plenty of free parking.    

Ken Mizrach, Director of the VA New Jersey Health Care System, which oversees the CBOC, said, “We are excited to be offering our nation’s heroes with the quality of health care services they so deserve.”  He added that the types of services available at the new site include “primary care in the new Patient Aligned Care Team model; expanded telehealth services; optometry services; and social work, nutrition, and psychiatry services.”  The CBOC is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding national holidays.  In addition, extended hours will be offered on Thursdays, effective October 6, from 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

United States Representatives Rush Holt (12^th, NJ) and Frank Pallone (6^th, NJ), both great supporters of VA services in New Jersey, will participate in the event.  Attendees will include the Mayor of Eatontown, VA leadership from the New York/New Jersey Network of hospitals, Veteran Stakeholders and State Commanders of Veterans Service Organizations representing tens of thousands of Veterans throughout New Jersey.
