The Department of Veterans Affairs says it's not renewing the contract of Physican Lee Nayles. A spokesperson told a legislative committee, Nayles failed to get VA credentialed and didn't visit patients at the home for an entire year.

That news just came out a few weeks ago. The agency had to get permission from the legislature to hire a new physician by July 1st. The Little Rock home is still searching for a director. Former director, Janet Levine, was fired in April after it was discovered she had over collected nearly $600,000 in fees from veterans.

Good. During the many years I worked for ADVA we had reliable phsicians who actually cared...and Administrators who did the job professionally. This house cleaning is long overdue.
