The DoD, Military Services, and collaborating organizations mark Warrior Care Month in November by highlighting the strength and resilience – physically, mentally, and spiritually – of our wounded, ill, and injured service members, as well as their families and caregivers. The effort is aimed at raising awareness of the recovery coordination resources and programs available today and inspiring year-round discourse regarding today’s warrior care priorities.
Key Messages for Communicators:
- The Military Services’ Warrior Care Programs provide command, medical management, and non-medical assistance to wounded, ill, and injured service members navigating the recovery and rehabilitation phases of the military medical treatment system.
- Caring for the wounded, ill, and injured service members who have sacrificed so much is a top priority for the Department of Defense.
- DoD continuously evaluates the needs of the warrior care programs to ensure an exceptional level of care is provided to the current and future population of wounded, ill and injured service members, their families, and caregivers.
- Proactive coordination of non-medical care, in concert with unparalleled medical care, ensures wounded, ill and injured service members are best positioned to embrace their new normal. Medical and non-medical care must closely align for the benefit of service members and their families.
- Warrior care encompasses a full spectrum of support through recovery, rehabilitation, and reintegration back to duty or transition into the community.
