This document discusses mental health screening in the military. It outlines the process for screening military applicants and assessing active service members. For applicants, there is an initial medical prescreening exam and further exam at the Military Entrance Processing Station. For active members, there is self-reporting, mandatory health evaluations, and surveys. Members have access to treatment. However, the document notes that applicant screening relies solely on self-reporting and there is a lack of mandatory periodic testing for active members. It suggests improving screening through in-person applicant exams and mandatory assessments.

Military Health System (MHS) data were analyzed to estimate the prevalence of demographic, military, deployment, physical, mental health, and substance use characteristics of the AWTU cohort (N=31,094) compared to an Army cohort (N=851,997) who returned from OEF/OIF/OND deployments between FY2008-FY2015 and received BH care in the MHS, but were not referred to an AWTU during post-deployment. This study aimed to: (1) compare military and deployment characteristics of Army service members (SMs) who returned from Iraq and Afghanistan deployments from FY2008-FY2015 and were referred to Warrior Transition Units (WTUs) to those who were not referred to WTUs and (2) estimate the prevalence of physical injuries and behavioral health diagnoses of Army service members referred to WTUs from FY2008-FY2015 within 90 days of WTU referral.JLM-CV 11.20.14

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Our Soldiers- Providing Earlier Intervention
History
There is a significant amount of information out there on post traumatic stress disorder and the
military, and this is mostly due to the fact that our combat soldiers were the ones observed over
time to determine the effects war has had on them. Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can
be thought of as a "young" diagnosis. PTSD has been around for centuries, but it was n~t until
1980 that it was made an official disorder. However, throughout history, people have
recognized that exposure to combat situations can have an intensely negative impact on the
people who are involved in these situations. (Mathew Tull, 2009) PTSD has previously been
described ia-410J e ~s "combat fatigue," "shell shock," or "war neurosis," and is defined by the
American Psychiatric Association as an anxiety (emotional) disorder which stems from a
particular incident evoking significant stress. (Bentley, 2005) PTSD is not limited to combat
soldiers but can also be found among survivors of the Holocaust, of car accidents, of sexual
assaults, and of other traumatic experiences. War has always had a severe psychological effect
on people, and with the war our country is currently in, more and more of our soldiers are
suffering from PTSD. After a traumatic experience, the mind and the body are in shock, but as
the victim makes sense of what happened and processes his/her emotions, healing takes place
leading toward normal function once again. With PTSD, one remains in psychological shock.
The memory of what happened and their feelings about it are disconnected. In order to move
on, it's important to face and feel those memories and emotions. One effective approach is
through counseling. (Mathew Tull, 2009)
The symptoms of PTSD can occur all of a sudden, progressively, come and go over time, or
appear out of nowhere. Sometimes, symptoms are triggered by something that reminds a
31 Page
person of the original traumatic event, such as a noise, an image, certain words, or a smell.
While everyone experiences PTSD differently, there are three main types of symptoms:
(Bentley, 2005)
1. Re-experiencing the traumatic event
2. Avoiding reminders of the trauma
3. Increased anxiety and emotional arousal
According to the Graffiti of War Project, in 2007, the number of diagnosed cases in the military
jumped 50%. One in every five military personnel returning from Iraq and Afghanistan has
PTSD, and 20% of the soldiers who've been deployed since 2001 have PTSD which is over
300,000. More troops are serving their second, third or fourth tours of duty, which dramatically
increases stress according to medical heath experts. Also, extended tour lengths from 12
months to 15 months were done to prov ...

Health Assessment.pptx
Health assessment is an essential nursing function that provides the foundation for quality nursing care through identifying client needs, clinical problems, and strengths in order to promote their health. It involves systematically collecting both subjective and objective data about a person's general physical and mental condition using the senses. Health assessments are performed for various indications such as on admission, discharge, follow-up, during health camps, and before or after diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The components of health assessment are the health history and physical examination.

2. These models allow physical therapists to directly evaluate and treat patients for musculoskeletal conditions, potentially reducing wait times and referrals to specialists.
3. For physical therapists to practice in primary care, models require additional training in areas like pharmacology, radiology, and differential diagnosis of medical conditions. The implementation of PTs in primary care roles has the potential to improve access, quality and cost of care for musculoskeletal issues.

Health Assessment.pptx
Health assessment is an essential nursing function that provides the foundation for quality nursing care through identifying client needs, clinical problems, and strengths in order to promote their health. It involves systematically collecting both subjective and objective data about a person's general physical and mental condition using the senses. Health assessments are performed for various indications such as on admission, discharge, follow-up, during health camps, and before or after diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The components of health assessment are the health history and physical examination.

3. For physical therapists to practice in primary care, models require additional training in areas like pharmacology, radiology, and differential diagnosis of medical conditions. The implementation of PTs in primary care roles has the potential to improve access, quality and cost of care for musculoskeletal issues.
