The William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital is an acute care hospital that provides Psychiatric care to veterans statewide. The Middleton Memorial Veteran’s Hospital was one of the first of over 70 partnerships between medical schools and VA facilities that were initiated by Dr. Middleton.
This facility is physically and academically linked with the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics and affiliated with the University of Wisconsin. Through this affiliation, it has developed a close working relationship with the Medical School, and has integrated teaching and medical programs in Psychiatry as well as other Medical School departments. The VA Psychiatry inpatient unit consists of a 16 bed locked area with seclusion rooms. It serves adult male and female veterans in need of psychiatric stabilization.
The VA Hospital is also a research site for UW Department of Psychiatry faculty. The Department’s Substance Abuse Research Program, as well as a schizophrenia research program are coordinated there.
