Question
Hannah
Hello,
I am a senior at West Virginia University where I am a Rural Health Scholar and am studying Exercise Physiology with plans to become a physical therapist. As a Rural Health Scholar, I have had the pleasure of being part of a module discussing the challenges and problems rural veterans face. While I have learned about the difficulties rural veterans are exposed to, reading articles does not compare to talking to someone who is living this firsthand. As part of this module, I am to start an online discussion with rural veterans.
I have a few questions for any rural veterans who would like to respond. Your answers will help me know how to better help rural veterans when serving as a healthcare provider in the future.
1. Do you think your rural communities do enough to support you and help you access quality healthcare? What more could rural communities do for you?
2. Do you think the VA does enough to support you and help you access quality healthcare? What more would you like to see the VA do to help rural veterans?
3. What is a biggest problem you face trying to access healthcare as a rural veteran?
4. If you could give me any advice on being a future healthcare provider to rural veterans, what would it be?
I appreciate you taking the time to answer one or more of these questions! I will take time to read each answer and use them to become a better healthcare provider.
