Abstract

United States Veterans are at an elevated risk for suicide despite the expansion of public outreach initiatives. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) health care centers may not be accessible to a large proportion of Veterans, but on the other hand, community-based physicians often do not feel they have tools to meet these patients’ unique needs. This issue may be addressed via collaboration between VA and community-based providers to develop military cultural competence alongside increased education on the breadth of resources available to Veteran patients.
