We started our Vet Van to the Mtn Home Vet Hospital in early June 2005. We are able to carry up to 14 riders. The new Vet Van was donated to the Johnson City Hospital to bring Disabled Vets from Blount County and Knoxville two days a week to the Veterans Hospital in Johnson City. The Van will leave Tennessee Drug & Alcohol at 207 Gill Street Alcoa TN on Wed and Thurs at 0500. It will then travel to the VET Center on Magnolia and leave there at 0530. There is no cost to those patients going to the Mtn Home Veterans Hospital for medical treatment. The Van arrives back at the VET Center around 1415 and in Blount County around 1500. We are looking for Volunteer Drivers for the VA Van. Please be considerate of our Veterans. They were there for you at your time of need. We have hundreds returning now that will need medical treatment. Please support them. This program is completely managed by volunteers and paid for by the Volunteer Services at Mtn Home.
If you would like to volunteer to drive the VA Van, please call the following numbers at least two days before to schedule your ride.
