Wishing you a joyful and safe holiday season!๐ŸŒŸ

For many people, Christmas is an enjoyable time filled with connection and celebration. However, we recognise that this period is not always easy for everyone.

The end of the year can bring added pressures which can affect mental health and overall well-being.

Itโ€™s okay if the festive season looks different for you or those around you. We encourage everyone to be mindful of one another, to check in when they can, and to offer support through simple gestures and open conversations.

Just as importantly, we encourage taking time to look after your own wellbeing, whether that means slowing down, doing something you enjoy, or acknowledging the effort it has taken to get through the year.

Supporting mental health, at Christmas and beyond, matters to us ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ“ The DVA assessment process

DVA utilises medical practitioners to provide them with the information they need to ensure veterans are appropriately compensated for injuries or illness they incurred as a result of their service in the Australian Defence Force (ADF).

The purpose of the assessment is to review symptoms and determine if the veteranโ€™s ADF service contributed to the development or worsening of the mental health condition.

The assessment aims to determine the impact of the veteranโ€™s service-related medical conditions on their day-to-day life.

๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธ What will the Psychiatrist discuss?

โœ… The symptoms and severity of the symptoms impacting their day-to-day life
โœ… Previous and current treatment
โœ… The veteranโ€™s functional status
โœ… A small number of examination findings
โœ… Common investigation results

๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธ What is the Psychiatristโ€™s role?

โœ… To discuss your symptoms and the impact on your health and daily life
โœ… To understand your ADF military experience and touch on your personal history

๐Ÿ“ How should I prepare?

โœ… The Psychiatrist will be respectful and fair, there is no need to worry
โœ… Be on time for your assessment and complete any questionnaires prior to your appointment
โœ… Any questions please contact the clinic on 0492 049 684
