How is VA helping the families of seriously injured service members in the Polytrauma System of Care?
VA considers family support a priority. Medical Center leadership is visible and available for meetings with families throughout their stay in the Polytrauma System of Care. Case managers provide active support by coordinating the efforts of clinical staff, voluntary services, and service organizations. They also work with community organizations and businesses to provide lodging, transportation, meals, and recreational activities for families, if needed. Each Polytrauma team has a clinical psychologist and a neuropsychologist who are available to provide counseling, education, and support services to families.
