Episode 18 - The Glue

Many Veterans who seek care with the VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System will have issues that can't be solved strictly through medical or clinical needs, or they'll need help from sources outside of our VA umbrella.  Whether it is seeking care for addiction issues, getting assistance to see someone through a time of homelessness, or just being an advocate for someone, our social workers are the ones who frequently connect Veterans with the myriad of services they need.

 

On this episode of The 9 Line, Polly Kong, Inpatient Specialty Social Work Supervisor, and Gigi Simmons, Healthcare for Homeless Vets Program Coordinator join us to talk about all the work VASNHS Social Workers are doing on a daily basis to guide Veterans to the help they need.
