After undergoing the medical discharge process from the armed forces following over 22 years of service, I was left with many concerns as I entered a very unfamiliar stage of my life.
Can I work? Will I find employment that can support my mental and physical limitations? How will my care be continued? Will my treatment have to start from the beginning? The process has left many service personnel frustrated, unsure for the future and not knowing where or who to turn to for support.
You aren’t just a number anymore; you’ve got your name back! Contact the Veterans Welfare Group today and we will help your transition back to ‘civilian’ life.
