Coping with the traumas of war: why more veterans need access to telehealth now
"[Veterans] should not have to march into a clinical sterile setting to try to explain the horrors of war.” ~Dr. Ronald Boyd
On this episode of Connected Nation, we ask our audience to consider a serious question. "How do you believe your world view would shift once you’ve been shot at or been asked to shoot others?”
Hear from one therapist, who is also a disabled combat veteran, about how the country can better leverage broadband access is to help more of the nation's veterans—who often struggle to adjust to the normalcy of life at home after experiencing traumatic and dangerous scenarios.
