The Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System (CAVHS), a flagship Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) healthcare provider, is one of the largest and busiest VA medical centers in the country. Its two
hospitals, located in Little Rock and North Little Rock, anchor a broad spectrum of inpatient and
outpatient healthcare services, ranging from disease prevention through primary care, to complex
surgical procedures, to extended rehabilitative care. This System serves as a teaching facility for more
than 1,500 students and residents enrolled in more than 65 educational programs; its principal affiliate
is the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
CAVHS is reaching out to veterans through its
community-based outpatient clinics in Mountain Home, El Dorado, Hot Springs, and Mena, its Home
