Veterans Care Resources and Education

Stay tuned for details on our Medical Patriot Program, which will include continuing medical education opportunities and a certificate program for those deeply committed to improving Veterans care in the private sector. For now, the VA offers exposure education and has a useful application to better understand military service-related toxic exposures and how they may impact your Veteran patients’ health.

Environmental Health Guidance

More resources including continuing medical education will be shared soon. For those concerned about PFAS like Gen X contaminating our water, we advise you to review the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) clinician guidance for more information.
