On Saturday, November 14, VA medical centers across the country will participate in a first ever Access Stand Down.  A team of clinical leaders, administrators and volunteers will be on site at every VA medical center to reach out to all Veterans identified as having the most important and acute needs to make sure they can be seen either in VA or in the community. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is committed to providing timely access to Veterans as determined by their clinical needs.  We strive for all Veterans to have safe, high-quality, personalized, and timely care wherever they receive their health services. 

Also taking place on Saturday, the Motorcycle Rally to Support Veterans is jointly sponsored by the Washington Crossing National Cemetery, the Crescenz VA Medical Center, and the Philadelphia VA Regional Office and Insurance Center.  The event, which will have a Police escort, will originate and end at Brian’s Harley-Davidson in Langhorne, PA, and make stops at the Vietnam Memorial in Philadelphia at Penn’s Landing, the Corporal Michael J. Crescenz VAMC, Delaware Valley State Veteran’s Home (Southampton Road and Rt. 1), and Washington Crossing National Cemetery.

Information tables will be set-up from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Brian’s Harley-Davidson for Veterans and their family members to receive information and have questions answered by VA staff about programs, services and benefits.  Brian’s Harley-Davidson is located at 600 S. Flowers Mill Road, Langhorne, PA.

The Ride begins at 10 a.m. at Brian’s Harley-Davidson in Langhorne, PA. Between 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., there will be a motorcycle rally to support veterans stops at Corporal Michael J. Crescenz VA Medical Center.
