Two Walter Reed team members earned Fiscal Year 2024 Defense Health Agency (DHA) Medical Logistics (MEDLOG) Annual Awards. The award honors the achievements of officers, warrant officers, enlisted personnel, and government civilians who demonstrate exceptional leadership, exceptional work output, community service involvement, and a dedication to personal development.
Psychological and behavioral health services are as important for force readiness as physical health care after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). At the National Intrepid Center of Excellence (NICoE), social workers are often service members’ points of contact when it comes to behavioral health. Social workers assess and treat a variety of behavioral health symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, sleep issues and family relationships.
