Aging, Chronicity & End of Life

NURS 6024, NURS 6023, NURS 6019

Servicemembers and Veterans often acquire chronic health conditions through military service. It can be complex to navigate the intersections of services between the VA, DHA, and community-based health partnerships.

Caring for Veterans: Aging, Chronicity, & End-of-Life Care
Explores aging/chronicity in veteran populations, environmental exposures in military environments, and long-term effects of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosive materials. Examines specific service-connected conditions for veterans of Vietnam, Gulf War, and Iraq/Afghanistan and end-of-life care. Two other courses further deepened my understanding of benefits, service connection, and health care systems and policy.
