Healthcare Inspection – Alleged Mold Issues Impacting Employee and Patient Safety at the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

At the request of Senator Russell Feingold, the OIG conducted a review of allegations at the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We administratively closed this review on March 28, 2011, because Medical Center leadership had taken appropriate actions, and we made no recommendations. When we completed our review, Senator Feingold was no longer in office; therefore, we provided a summary of our review to Senator Herb Kohl. In addition to posting this review on our website, OIG has distributed copies of this review to VA and Veterans Health Administration officials, congressional committees, national veterans service organizations, the Government Accountability Office, and the Office of Management and Budget.
