Oneida County DAV Van: the Weekday Run to the Iron Mountain VA Medical Center

The schedule. The department's DAV Van page: "To schedule a ride to your VA appointments call the DAV Van reservation line at: (715) 369-6227. All reservations MUST be scheduled no later than 4:00 p.m. on Thursday the week before your appointment but we ask that you please reserve your seat as soon as you have your appointment. All the drivers are volunteers and we cannot guarantee one will be available on short notice. No reservations for the following week will be accepted after 4:00 p.m. the Thursday before the week you want to ride. The van runs Monday through Thursday and does not leave Rhinelander before 6:30 a.m. If you're planning to use the van for your transportation needs, we suggest scheduling your appointment no earlier than 9:00 a.m. in order to ensure you get there on time. We cannot guarantee you will make it to Iron Mountain on time for an earlier appointment because there may be other stops along the way." The return and the caregivers. "The van leaves Iron Mountain when the last veteran is done with their appointment but absolutely no later than 3:00 p.m." and "The DAV does allow care givers to travel with the veteran if they provide a letter from the veteran's doctor stating that the care giver is needed." The page notes the Iron Mountain VAMC's masking rule alongside the department's COVID note. Where. Rides are booked through the Veterans Services office, Oneida County Courthouse, 1 S. Oneida Ave., Rhinelander (715-369-6127); the reservation line is 715-369-6227.
