MADISON- The third annual UW Health veterans’ career event is set for Tuesday, November 10 starting at 8 a.m. at the UW Health administrative office building, 7974 UW Health Court in Middleton.

With more than 200 employees with known military service, UW Health thanks all veterans for their service to our country and hopes this offering provides value in their journey home.
