no one behind on the battlefield. But many veterans are beginning to believe their country has left them behind at home. We all say we are thankful for are veterans but how do we show it? A national problem that faces Americans today is the treatment of our veterans. It’s been debated on and on, is are veterans treated like heroes? Everyday in 2017 an average of 20 veterans committed suicide. In the last 15 years more…

leadership in the planning, coordinating and implementation of the Peritoneal Dialysis Program. This is a brand new program, developed to bring back the Veterans who were receiving their care out in the community. With the complexity of their care due to multiple co-morbidities it is critical for them to receive all their care at the Providence Veterans Administration Medical Center (PVAMC). Evidence based resources were used in creating the program and the Peritoneal Dialysis International…

many of those that need help are lost in the countless numbers of others that have served. For example, “50% of those with PTSD do not seek treatment and out of the half that seek treatment, only half of them get "minimally adequate" treatment” (Veterans and PTSD). Our eagles take flight but as soon as they injure their wings we abandon them. We turn humans into killing machines and don’t teach them how to turn their humanity switch back on. Our heroes, the ones we once praised, come back and…

Americans, both men and women, have sacrificed much for our country. We get veterans from various different tragedies and times in the United States. Our country is still home to veterans from World War II, the Vietnam War, and those influenced to serve from the tragedy of 9/11. I know that multitudes of veterans would like people to know how hard it was for them and out of reverence and honor I will tell of many struggles that veterans faced then and now. I extensively respect, honor, and value…

Access to health care is characterized as the timely use of service to achieve the best possible health care outcome. Active-duty military and veterans get their health care through the DOD's military health system, TRICARE, and the VA's health care system, respectively. Discontinuity of care in both those systems does occur. Electronic health records offer the guarantee of limiting fragmentation of care, however the DOD and VA have not yet coordinated their health records. There are…

country. I feel also veterans need of companionship from people to hear their story. It is very important to make sacrifices for people served the country as well as helping them in their time of need. The most interested point, No Veteran Dies Alone (NVDA), is a volunteer program to take care of all veterans during life and in death. This program focus on “no one faces the challenge of death alone”. The country provide the insurance to cover hospice and palliative care. Veterans who in hospice…

The Five People You Meet in Heaven starts with the introduction of a man named Eddie. He is crippled war veteran of World War II. Eddie had a very difficult life because of his abusive drunk father. The only good part of the beginning of his life is his caring mother. His father is a maintenance man at a well known amusement park called Ruby Pier.

The question being asked of me is “Why Veterans are Important to Our Nation’s History and Future?” Veterans are important to me because I live with two of them and I have a lot of them in my family. Without them, I wouldn’t know the reason why we have people sacrificing themselves for our country. My Grandpa, Roy Noble, always said that “War is not good but fighting for our country is,” I didn’t really understand that until I realized without them we wouldn’t have a free country. Britain would…

everyone respect, especially our veterans. There’s many people that sacrificed their lives to help all of our daily lives better. I believe in an America where everybody respects our veterans. They fought and sacrificed their lives for us so we could have freedom. We could have our rights, freedom of speech, and they have improved our equality. A military veteran is someone who served honorably in one of the branches of US Military. “What is a veteran? A ‘veteran’ - whether active duty,…
