Planning ahead can be one of the most meaningful gifts you give your loved ones.

The Ralph H. Johnson VA Health Care System hosts a monthly Advance Care Planning Workshop to help Veterans think through important healthcare decisions and ensure their wishes are clearly understood.

During this session, Veterans and caregivers can learn about advance directives, choosing a healthcare decision-maker, and how to communicate their preferences with family and care teams.

These conversations can bring peace of mind and ensure your voice is heard when it matters most.

Veterans enrolled at Ralph H. Johnson VA and their caregivers are welcome to join the virtual workshop each month.

Today we had the honor of celebrating the life and legacy of PFC Ralph H. Johnson, the Marine hero for whom our medical center is proudly named.

Veterans, staff, and members of the community gathered to reflect on his courage and sacrifice, with special remarks from members of Ralph’s family.

Following the program, his family graciously hosted lunch for Veteran patients and their families, a meaningful gesture making the day even more special.

We are grateful for the opportunity to honor Ralph’s legacy and the example he continues to set for all of us. We especially appreciate Ralph's family for bringing warm hospitality and company to our beloved hospital!

VA officials are warning Veterans about a scam involving fraudulent appointment letters requesting payment for VA appointments.

In several recent cases, Veterans received letters claiming they had a scheduled VA appointment and were asked to pay in advance.

Important reminder:
VA does NOT require payment in advance for VA or Community Care appointments.

If you receive a suspicious appointment letter or message:

• Do NOT send payment
• Do NOT share personal information
• Verify the appointment directly with your VA medical facility

If something doesn’t look right, contact your VA care team or local VA facility to confirm.

Please help protect fellow Veterans by sharing this alert.

More Time for Veterans, Less Typing for Providers!

The Ralph H. Johnson VA Health Care System is rolling out Ambient Artificial Intelligence Scribe technology to enhance the Veteran care experience. Ambient AI Scribe securely assists your provider by capturing notes during your primary care visit, allowing them to focus on you, not the keyboard. It’s the Veterans’ choice to use it and the decision will not affect your care.

You can expect:
• More one-on-one time with your provider
• The same high-quality VA care, with added focus on what matters most….your health

Your privacy is always protected, and participation is your choice.
