Yesterday afternoon, our Center for Development and Civic Engagement (CDCE) team had the distinct honor of celebrating an incredible milestone: WWII Veteran Mr. Wesley Moore’s 100th birthday!

The CDCE team was thrilled to be there to celebrate with him and present Mr. Moore with a Centenarian Award signed by VA Secretary Doug Collins, along with a special SecVA coin.

Mr. Moore proudly served our country in the Pacific theater during WWII as a U.S. Navy Gunner’s Mate aboard the USS Pitt—a critical invasion ship responsible for deploying landing craft.

Please join us and our CDCE team in thanking Mr. Moore for his bravery, his service, and wishing him a very happy 100th birthday!

3) Offer support and encouragement to someone with Alzheimer’s and/or their caregiver(s).

We are proud to announce that Barbara Davis, LPN, is our DAISY Honoree for the month of March!

Barb, a dedicated nurse in our Women’s Wellness Center, recently used her life-saving actions and instincts to protect a Veteran in need. During a routine follow-up call, she noticed a Veteran she knew well was in severe distress. Barb screened the patient, recognized she was at risk for self-harm, and immediately took action. While keeping the Veteran calmly engaged on the phone, she coordinated with mental health services to secure urgent support and followed up with daily calls over the next several days to ensure her continued safety.

Because of Barb's intervention, the Veteran re-engaged with her care team and recently visited the clinic to thank Barb for saving her life. Barb embodies everything nursing is meant to be: compassionate, skilled, and patient-centered.

Thank you, Barb, for your outstanding commitment to our Veterans!
