A New State Veterans Home - a great benefit

Fred Schaible, Deputy Director of the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, talks about the work of the Michigan Veterans Facility Authority and the new 128 private residence rooms in a state-of-the-art Chesterfield Township facility. This serves veterans in SE Michigan and is part of a state and national effort to upgrade veteran homes. Fred explains the neighborhood layout and the services available in these new assisted living homes. He also explains admission criteria and what future homes may be coming to all states because of the new $500 million in funding that VA has available to invest in such projects. Host Jim Fausone asks about the national landscape for these homes, the regulation, and funding.
