This means that, as part of the health commitments of the armed forces covenant, we have a dedicated clinician with a specialist knowledge of military-related health conditions and veteran-specific health services. This is important in helping ex-forces to get the best care and treatment.
If you are ex-forces, please let your GP know to help ensure you are getting the best possible care. To find out more, ask your nurse or GP.
More than 1,300 practices are now veteran-friendly accredited. To find out more about the Veteran Friendly Practices accreditation scheme, visit www.rcgp.org.uk/veterans
The Veteran Friendly Practices accreditation scheme is run by the Royal College of General Practitioners in partnership with NHS England and NHS Improvement.
