Description: Waco, TEXAS - Veterans Administration Hospital - 1914 - VA: The Waco medical center is a psychiatric facility which provides inpatient psychiatric care, nursing home care to psycho geriatric patients, and includes a Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Residential Treatment Program (PRRTP). It houses a 44-bed residential unit designed to treat veterans in the Serious Mental Illness Life Enhancement (SMILE) program, which offers rehabilitation and recovery services, including enhanced services for seriously mentally ill veterans with substance abuse problems. The primary focus of this program is to improve the quality of life for veterans, promoting independence and recovery. Waco’s psychiatric mission consists of 64 intermediate and acute psychiatric beds. In addition, the Waco facility has 140 beds to provide long term care to "psycho-geriatric" patients, who are defined as those patients with a psychiatric disorder who are age 65 or older. Individuals older than age 50, who have chronic diseases resembling a geriatric process, are also considered for program placement. The goal of the program is to discharge the veteran to the least restrictive setting. Waco also includes a Blind Rehabilitation Unit that started in 1974 and currently has 15 inpatient beds. The program provides comprehensive rehabilitation services for legally blind veterans. Aids and devices are issued to veterans to include mobility devices, low vision optical aids, communication equipment, and computers. This Divided Back Era postcard is in good condition, but shows edge wear. There is also some paper affixed to the cards reverse with glue. E. C. Kropp Co., Milwaukee, Wis.
