If you have served in any war from VietNam to Iraq and Afghanistan, and if you’ve had any traumatic experience that is effecting you today, then you need to talk to contact Dr. Brett Valette at Veterans Psych Evaluations. Dr. Brett Valette provides a compassionate and thorough evaluation with a comprehensive report for your VA claim. As a clinical psychologist and Dr. Brett Valette has specialized in PTSD and trauma evaluations for over 15 years. Whether it's a combat trauma, or non-combat but experienced traumatic events, if you were a victim of military sexual trauma, if you were previously denied benefits, if you were labeled as “not fitting criteria” or if you have not had a service connected condition, Dr. Brett Valette can help you. Some Vets have worsening of their condition after they’re home for a few years. Suddenly they find themselves living in isolation, sleeping with their gun, having angry outbursts at their partners and even their children. The people who are important to you are now afraid of you. When you leave your house you scan for danger, you plan escape routes (even in McDonalds), ‘stupid drivers’ should be run off the road, and disrespect for you is all around.

Additionally, we work with contractors and others who worked overseas in support of US efforts and need evaluations for a DBA claim. With exceptional experience and knowledge Dr. Brett Valette knows exactly what the VA needs in a report to make a clinically legitimate determination of your diagnosis and rating.

What experiences are you as veterans having now? Have you seen these effects?

The net staffing losses include thousands of front-line health care staff.

A watchdog inside the Department of Veterans Affairs issued an urgent advisory Thursday over two AI chat tools currently in use by VA healthcare providers, citing “potential patient safety risks.”

Doctors aren’t using AI to diagnose patients, but the Inspector General found problems could potentially arise in some cases when doctors use artificial intelligence to analyze medical information and update patient records.

The bulletin said the systems can be vulnerable to producing misinformation, privacy violations, and bias, and that the systems had been put in place without review by the VA’s own patient safety experts.

When reached for comment about the advisory, Pete Kasperowicz, a spokesperson for the department, said that “VA clinicians only use AI as a support tool, and decisions about patient care are always made by the appropriate VA staff.”

Dr. Matthew Miller, the former executive director for VA Su***de Prevention, told Task & Purpose that the memo was obviously urgent.

“It’s an official communication from [the Office of the Inspector General] recommending a ‘stopping of the presses’ of the AI tools under review based upon perceived patient safety concerns,” Miller said. “Specifically, [the Office of the Inspector General] has come across info within their review that indicates appropriate process-oriented safeguards may not be in place.”

"But criteria the VA developed in 1945 do not align with modern medicine, employment and the impact of disabilities on a veteran’s earnings potential, the Government Accountability Office testified at a subcommittee hearing of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee Wednesday.

The medical problems of post-9/11 veterans include traumatic brain injuries and post-traumatic stress disorder, which were not widely recognized decades ago, Hunter said."

"Military retirement pay is earned through years of service. Disability pay is compensation intended to help make up income veterans might lose in the future due to service-related injuries or health conditions. Reducing one because a combat-injured veteran receives another is not in line with the purpose of either earned benefit. "

The Major Richard Star Act is a bipartisan bill that would correct an injustice to combat-injured veterans by allowing them to receive both their full retirement pay and disability compensation, an…

“This program reflects our duty to serve those who once served us,” Sheriff Dave Rosado said. “These men and women wore our nation’s uniform, and now they’re facing battles no one can see.”

The program is intended to help veterans understand the connection between their trauma and behavior while developing coping strategies and begin building new habits for life after release.

The Chesapeake Sheriff’s Office announced Monday the launch of their new Veteran PTSD Program, which is designed to help incarnated veterans heal complex trauma from military service.
