During your QSO you wondered if VA Hospitals would permit amateur stations.

Here in Charleston, SC, our club has installed a HF/VHF station at the Ralph Johnson VA Hospital. It's primarily used to support emergency situations, though I don't see any reason a patient couldn't operate with a club member.
