NY Times on military mental health

April 27, 2010 at 9:42 am magerton Leave a comment

The NY Times had a good article on mental health care for soldiers who’ve suffered psychological trauma in Iraq and Afghanistan. The article seems to suggest that the care is long on medication and short on recovery services.

Read the article “Feeling Warehoused in Army Trauma Care Units.”
