The Orlando VA Medical Center (Station #675) was officially established effective October 1, 2006, when it was approved as a new VA facility.  The Orlando VA healthcare system currently includes a 120-bed Community Living Center (CLC), a 60-bed Domiciliary, and VA's largest comprehensive outpatient clinic at the Orlando site, two (2) large comprehensive, satellite outpatient clinics in Daytona and Viera, and four (4) Community-Based Outpatient Clinics in Kissimmee, Leesburg, Clermont and Orange City, FL. Orlando's new "Medical City" is under construction, shining an international spotlight on the area's growing life sciences/biotech sector. VA has joined with other life science partners to create a medical destination for research, education and patient care. With the opening of the University of Central Florida's new College of Medicine, the building of several prestigious medical research institutes, and the construction of the new Orlando VA Medical Center and a highly-specialized Children's Hospital, Orlando is rapidly becoming a prime destination for healthcare professionals and patients seeking state-of-the-art care, with the highest standards in patient safety.   The Orlando VA system is located in East-Central Florida and is recognized as a family-oriented area.  Florida is recognized for its warm, sunny climate, beautiful beaches, abundant housing options, and no state income tax, with many local entertainment attractions/outdoor activities readily available.  The Orlando VA system is associated with the University of Central Florida and other local community colleges, with active affiliations in allied health programs, such as Nursing, Pharmacy, Physical/Occupational Therapy, and Social Work.
