Dr. Jennifer Jennings, Director of WRIISC CA Clinical Services, and Dr. Maheen Adamson, Director of WOMEN Research, join Dr. Nicole Sullivan, Clinical Psychologist, to discuss the latest research on common health concerns among female Veterans with military exposures, and how to translate these findings into clinical care. This virtual, knowledge-based training is appropriate for interprofessional healthcare teams.

 

Head trauma is a major, frequent exposure among military personnel, and one of the most important conditions to manage, both in terms of life-disruption and for recovery is management of sleep difficulties. Sleep management is an important clinical concern that is poorly addressed in most care settings, and particularly for Veterans with complex military exposure concerns.

The purpose of this knowledge-based, live virtual webinar is to provide innovative knowledge of the management of sleep for Veterans with Traumatic Brain Injury and discuss the implications for supporting Veterans with chronic physical symptoms and environmental exposure concerns. Sleep management is an important clinical concern that is poorly addressed in most care settings, and particularly for Veterans with complex military exposure concerns. This training is appropriate for interprofessional health care teams.

It’s here - our free accredited FY 24 Webinar Series for military environmental exposures! Veterans have a wide range of military environmental exposure and post-deployment health concerns, including those that are medically unexplained, poorly understood, or difficult to diagnose.  Increasing interest from the media, congressional and other stakeholders highlight more education is needed.  This webinar series provides clinicians and staff with the knowledge and tools needed to effectively identify, evaluate, and manage symptoms and to communicate effectively with Veterans with military environmental exposure concerns and resulting health outcomes.
