VA Releases New PSA Targeting Women Veterans

The Department of Veterans Affairs has developed a new public service announcement (PSA) to let women Veterans know they’ve come to “The Right Place” when seeking VA health care.

The Department of Veterans Affairs has developed a new public service announcement (PSA) to let women Veterans know they’ve come to “The Right Place” when seeking VA health care.

All month, VA is celebrating the contributions made by women Veterans to our Nations history. Several new videos are available from the Stories of Service series, in which women Veterans speak of their experiences in the military and their return to civilian life.

The number of women Veterans attending VHA for healthcare has doubled between 2000 and 2010.

Female Veterans are on pace to double in number over the next few years. In preparing for this demographic shift — and in recognizing that women have unique health care needs — the VA has undergone nothing short of a medical makeover during the last decade.

A special supplement of the journal Women’s Health Issues published July 13 shows the tremendous growth and diversity of VA women’s health research in recent years.
