ICYMI: My father served 20 years on active duty and retired from the Navy as a Commander; my husband Aaron, served 34 years in the Coast Guard and retired as a Captain. I know how challenging the transition from active duty to civilian life can be - I’ve witnessed it firsthand. For disabled veterans, the process is even more daunting and their caregivers play an important role in the process. Many caregivers are family members or loved ones who take time out of their daily lives to do this much needed work. But right now, caregivers are struggling. 86% of caregivers say their responsibilities have affected their work or education, and only 21% say they feel they can comfortably retire. It’s clear that they need more support! I'm proud that our Easterseals Affiliates are working so hard to support veterans and military families and the caregivers who play such a key role in their lives. But we can only get veterans and their caregivers part of the way to complete success; we need employers to be active partners in this work. When this work integrates with the support and services that many nonprofits provide, we can create a future where veterans and their caregivers feel supported and their service to our nation is recognized and valued.

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. Their courage and patriotism have not only protected our nation but have also significantly contributed to advancing clinical research and medical breakthroughs. Throughout history, the military has been instrumental in developing life-saving treatments, preventive measures, and medical technologies that have had a profound impact on countless lives. From antimalarial drugs to trauma care innovations, their sacrifices have paved the way for groundbreaking progress in healthcare. An exemplary instance is the establishment of the U.S. Army's Walter Reed Army Institute of Research in 1893, known for its pioneering work in preventative medicine, including the development of the first successful yellow fever vaccine. Military clinicians and researchers have tirelessly strived to enhance health outcomes for both military personnel and civilians, even in challenging conditions. On this Memorial Day, we express our deep gratitude to the fallen heroes and the dedicated individuals who have advanced scientific knowledge through their service. Their commitment to protecting and improving human life through medical innovation is truly inspiring and a testament to the noblest of causes. Let us honor their legacy by reaffirming our support for clinical research that continues their impactful work. Their sacrifices remind us of the importance of striving for medical progress to enhance and save lives. We will always remember and appreciate their service. #drugdiscovery #drugdevelopment #studystartup #clinicaltrials #healthcare #clinicalresearch #patientrecruitment #sitemanagement #clinicaldevelopment #clinicaltrial #clinicaloperations #clinicalstudy #clinicalsupply

A lot of transitioning service members ask me why the Reserves? My response is why not the Navy Reserves? All transitioning service members and veterans felt the sense of call to serve their country, for most members that doesn’t just turn off when you get out. Transitioning out of the military is hard because their is a loss of identity, title, and role in one’s life. Even if you have the best job lined up there is nothing that will compare to your time servicing and the experiences that you were able to have. So many service members say that would have stayed on active duty if it wasn’t for this or that (fill in the blank of the various reasons). The Reserves capability, capacity, and opportunities I truly believe takes most if not all of those barriers away. A member doesn’t want to be serving in a full time status anymore? Great the reserves asks you to serve 36 days a year. Need more flexibility of when you’re asked to serve instead of mandated? Flexibility drilling allows you reschedule any drill as long as it works with your command. Your body has physical been affected and you don’t want to continue the wear and tear on it? Members in the reserves will receive both their VA disability compensation and drill pay with their claim only being financially stopped the days they are actively drilling never being asked to go back to their sea going job. I personally believe the reserves is the best kept secret in the Navy for those that feel they can no longer answer the call of active duty but want to continue to make an impact, serve their country, and take care of their family’s well being. I look forward to the opportunity to speak with anyone who has any questions or interest about the Navy Reserves. If this is you or someone you know that could benefit from this in anyway please reach out. #navy #navyreserves #transitioningmilitarymembers #veteranshelpingveterans #careeropportunities

I've never been a Navy Seal. (if you know me in person, you just laughed & for good reason. "Looking" athletic & Being athletic are 2 VERY different things. Just ask any of my PE teachers????). I've never been in the Navy...or in the military. But I'm an observer of human behavior. (side note: this may explain my fascination w/ utter rubbish reality TV. Everything from "90 Day Fiance" to "Alone." My brain always wants to figure out, "Why are you the way that you are??" ??) On a Professional level, I appreciate the determination, perseverance, & general attitude that comes with military service. They may not all have the same motivation for choosing to serve their country, but there is something motivating them. For many, it also comes w/ a higher level of integrity, a higher sense of Team > Self. It can be seen before they ever say a word, even long after they've retired or discharged into the civilian world. It doesn't require being in uniform b/c they've embodied a purpose. Why did I say Professional and not Personal? Well, frankly, b/c it's how I approach my career. I'm here to serve patients that I'll likely never meet & they'll never know I exist, even though I've just read the majority of their medical history. I may be in a coding & compliance sector of healthcare & have 0 interaction w/ the human on the other side of this medical record, but my actions can be determine if the patient has a great visit (as defined by the patient) w/ their physician. Carelessness on my end results in frustration for a provider, but if I can prepare - in quick, succinct fashion - new/updated info that has relevant impact to patient care & treatment plan, then I've anticipated & met a need. Now the patient has more time looking their Doctor in the eyes instead of the physician searching thru EHR/EMR files for the latest labs *or any other applicable scenario.* I'm no Seal. I never will be. But there is an interesting parallel to military service & healthcare careers - serving perfect strangers, & the job, when done correctly, is largely unnoticed. And it's not about recognition. If you've ever thanked a military member, they'll be polite about it, but to them, they are just doing a job. I chose coding & CDI b/c my introverted self loves that while I'm very similar to a nurse, there are no needles, no bodily fluids, & I'm not re-introducing myself 27 times a day. (to those of you who are patient-facing, God bless your patience & compassion for the work you do!) As for why I don't apply the same discipline to my Personal life...well, I'm a Class A procrastinator, & if there were a support group for it, I'd think about joining...tomorrow...maybe. Or...maybe I'll stop procrastinating, & read #UnSEALed as I have Mark Greene just staring at me from the cover where I laid the book by my work station. I suppose if anything can kick my butt into not procrastinating, it may be an unblinking Navy Seal just...watching me waste time. ?? ??

Great article about the heroics of the medical personnel who were required to go down range. In modern times regardless of all the fancy tools we have and are developing, the simple fact is that if we use the ground pounders to go to combat it is going to be the medic or corpsman managing the care on their own. That’s why we as the leaders need to make sure that they are trained and equipped to accomplish their mission. This is true for our personnel working in admin and clinic roles as much as it is for surgical, ER, and fleet roles.

Military Holidays There are three distinct holidays for honoring military personnel and all three are different in who they honor. Some people get confused, so let’s review them and keep it simple: Armed Forces Day 3rd Saturday in May Honors all military personnel now serving Memorial Day Last Monday in May Honors all military personnel who died while serving this nation Veterans Day November 11th Honors those who have served in the Armed Forces Many Americans and businesses try to piggy-back other things onto these holidays. For example, on Memorial Day you’ll find people coming up to veterans and saying, “Thanks for your service.” Please remember, Memorial Day isn’t about anybody’s service. Veterans cringe when they hear this as most vets have lost somebody in combat or training and that phrase, although said innocently and sincerely, is cringeworthy to most vets. It’s not about a mattress sale. It’s not about honoring first responders. It’s not about the first day of summer. Or barbecue. It’s not about anything except honoring those men and women - and the families - who made the ultimate sacrifice for this great nation! That’s it. Don’t add anything else to it. Its simple, but it’s also a somber event and there’s nothing happy about it, so please refrain from saying “Happy Memorial Day.” All three of these events are just single days, not months. So let’s give them the undivided attention each day deserves and focus on what exactly the day is set aside for…spend time with your families and share the meaning of the day with the younger members. Explain what the day is all about. There are many ways to celebrate and/or honor these folks: Visit a military cemetery on Memorial Day, a veterans home on Veterans Day, or send a care package to deployed troops on Armed Forces Day. Our organization is amazing when it comes to honoring these holidays. From placing flags on graves to setting up Missing Man tables to remember the POW-MIA personnel, we enjoy wide support! Many companies just use these days as off-days. Please share these three days with your family and friends! National Cemetery Andersonville, GA
