After pictures of a filthy exam room at the Salt Lake VA hospital went viral, healthcare facility officials apologized and said an internal investigation is underway to determine why a vet was placed in a dirty room, according to an article on the KUTV website.
While the internal investigation is conducted, hospital leaders are talking to staff about procedures.
Dr. Karen Gribbin, Chief of Staff, said while she didn't know exactly where the breakdown occurred in the process of treating Wilson, she did know that the room had been used to treat at least eight other vets in what was a "busy day" at the clinic.
The exam room was used earlier to apply plaster casts on the legs of other veterans who had diabetic ulcers on their feet.
