The Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC) – known as Walter Reed General Hospital (WRGH) until 1951 – was the U.Southward. Army'due south flagship medical middle from 1909 to 2011. Located on 113 acres (46 ha) in the Commune of Columbia, it served more than than 150,000 active and retired personnel from all branches of the war machine. The center was named after Major Walter Reed (1851–1902), an Regular army physician who led the team that confirmed that yellow fever is transmitted by mosquitoes rather than direct contact.

Since its origins, the WRAMC medical care facility grew from a bed capacity of 80 patients to approximately 5,500 rooms covering more than 28 acres (xi ha) of floor space. WRAMC combined with the National Naval Medical Center at Bethesda, Maryland in 2011 to form the tri-service Walter Reed National Armed forces Medical Eye (WRNMMC). The grounds and celebrated buildings of the old campus are beingness redeveloped as the Parks at Walter Reed.^[1]

History [edit]

Origins at Fort McNair [edit]

Fort Lesley J. McNair, located in the southwest of the District of Columbia on land gear up bated by George Washington as a military reservation, is the 3rd oldest U.S. Ground forces installation in continuous utilize in the United States after Westward Point and Carlisle Barracks. Its position at the confluence of the Anacostia River and the Potomac River fabricated information technology an excellent site for the defense force of the nation's capital. Dating dorsum to 1791, the postal service served equally an armory, played an of import function in the nation's defense, and housed the offset U.S. Federal Penitentiary from 1839 to 1862.

Today, Fort McNair enjoys a strong tradition every bit the intellectual headquarters for defense. Furthermore, with unparalleled vistas of the picturesque waterfront and the opposing Virginia shoreline, the celebrated wellness dispensary at Fort McNair, the forerunner of today's Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC), overlooks the residences of summit officials who choose the famed facility for the delivery of their health care needs.

"Walter Reed's Clinic," the location of the present day health clinic at Washington, D.C., occupies what was from 1898 until 1909 the General Hospital at what was then Washington Barracks, long before the post was renamed in honor of Lt. Gen. McNair who was killed in 1944. The hospital served as the precursor of Walter Reed General Hospital; nevertheless, the Victorian era waterfront dispensary remains and is peradventure one of America's most historically significant war machine medical treatment facilities. It is reported that Walter Reed lived and worked in the facility when he was assigned every bit Camp Surgeon from 1881 to 1882. Later having served on other assignments, he returned as Professor of Medicine and Curator of the Army Medical Museum. Some of his epidemiological work included studies at Washington Barracks, and he is best known for discovering the transmission of yellowish fever. In 1902, Major Reed underwent emergency surgery hither for appendicitis and died of complications in this U.S. Army Medical Handling Facility (MTF), within the very walls of what became his final military machine duty assignment.^[2]

Regarding the construction itself, since the 1890s the health dispensary was used as an Army Full general Hospital where physicians, corpsmen and nurses were trained in military health care. In 1899, the morgue was constructed which now houses the Dental Clinic, and in 1901 the hospital became an entirely separate control. This new organizational control relocated viii years later with the aide of equus caballus-drawn wagons and an experimental steam driven ambulance in 1909. Parting from the 50-bed hospital, equally documented in The Army Nursing Newsletter, Volume 99, Result two, February 2000,^[3] they set out due north transporting with them 11 patients initially to the new 65-bed facility in the northern attribute of the capital. Having departed Ft. McNair, the arrangement has since developed into the Walter Reed Army Medical Center that we know today.

Equally for the facility they left behind at Fort McNair, it functioned in a smaller function as a postal service hospital until 1911 when the west fly was converted into a clinic.

Walter Reed General Hospital and WRAMC [edit]

Congressional legislation appropriated $192,000 for the structure of Walter Reed General Infirmary^[4] (WRGH, now known as "Edifice ane"), and the first x patients were admitted on May 1, 1909. Lieutenant Colonel William Cline Borden was the initiator, planner and effective mover for the creation, location, and starting time Congressional back up of the Medical Center. Due to his efforts, the facility was nicknamed "Borden's Dream."^[v]

In 1923, General John J. Pershing signed the War Section order creating the "Army Medical Center" (AMC) inside the same campus as the WRGH. (At this fourth dimension, the Army Medical School was relocated from 604 Louisiana Avenue and became the "Medical Department Professional Service School" (MDPSS) in the new Building 40.) Pershing lived at Walter Reed from 1944 until his death there July xv, 1948.

The Walter Reed Full general Hospital (principal building with cupola in altitude at far left) in September, 1919. The WRGH was the precursor to WRAMC.

In September 1951, "Full general Lodge Number 8" combined the WRGH with the AMC, and the entire complex of 100 rose-brick Georgian Revival style buildings was at that time renamed the "Walter Reed Ground forces Medical Centre" (WRAMC). In June 1955, the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP) occupied the new Building 54 and, in November, what had been MDPSS was renamed the Walter Reed Ground forces Constitute of Research (WRAIR). 1964 saw the nativity of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Nursing (WRAIN). Onetime President Dwight D. Eisenhower died at WRAMC on March 28, 1969.

Starting in 1972, a huge new WRAMC building (Building 2) was synthetic and made ready for occupation by 1977. WRAIR moved from Edifice 40 to a large new facility on the WRAMC Forest Glen Addendum in Maryland in 1999. Afterward, Edifice forty was slated for renovation under an enhanced utilize lease by a private developer.

In 2007, the Academy of Pennsylvania and WRAMC established a partnership whereby proton therapy technology would be available to treat United States military personnel and veterans in the Perelman Center for Advanced Medicine's new Roberts Proton Therapy Middle.^{[6] [7]}

2007 neglect scandal [edit]

In February 2007, The Washington Post published a series of investigative manufactures outlining cases of alleged neglect (concrete deterioration of housing quarters exterior hospital grounds, bureaucratic nightmares, etc.) at WRAMC equally reported past outpatient soldiers and their families. A scandal and media furor chop-chop developed resulting in the firing of the WRAMC commanding general Maj. Gen. George Due west. Weightman,^[8] the resignation of Secretary of the Army Francis J. Harvey (reportedly at the asking of Secretarial assistant of Defence Robert Gates^[nine]), the forced resignation of Lt. Gen. Kevin C. Kiley, hospital commander from 2002 to 2004.^[x] Congressional committee hearings were called and numerous politicians weighed in on the matter including President George Due west. Bush-league, who had appointed Harvey, and Vice-President Dick Cheney. Several independent governmental investigations are ongoing and the controversy has spread to other armed forces wellness facilities and the Department of Veterans Affairs wellness intendance arrangement.

2005 BRAC recommendation and 2011 closure [edit]

As office of a Base Realignment and Closure announcement on May xiii, 2005, the Department of Defense proposed replacing Walter Reed Army Medical Center with a new Walter Reed National Armed services Medical Center (WRNMMC); the new center would be on the grounds of the National Naval Medical Eye in Bethesda, Maryland, seven miles (11 km) from WRAMC's location in Washington, D.C. The proposal was part of a program to transform medical facilities into joint facilities, with staff including Army, Navy, and Air Force medical personnel.

On August 25, 2005, the BRAC Committee recommended passage of the plans for the WRNMMC. The transfer of services from the existing to the new facilities was gradual to allow for continuity of intendance for the thousands of service members, retirees and family members that depended upon WRAMC. The end of operations at the WRAMC facility occurred on Baronial 27, 2011.^[11] The Army says the cost of closing that hospital and consolidating it with Bethesda Naval Medical Center in suburban Maryland more than doubled to $ii.6 billion since the plan was announced in 2005 by the Base Realignment and Closing Commission.^[12]
