Some of the stories covered in this issue include:
Helping veterans get back to work
When people leave the military, they can often feel that the skills they have learnt during their career don’t match with the skills employers are looking for.
Easier access to DVA treatment
Did you know that many current and former members of the ADF can receive treatment at DVA expense for a range of medical conditions without having to prove these conditions were a result of their military service?
Getting the right decision when you claim
Veterans frequently comment about the outcome of appeals. Why is it that some compensation claims are successful at appeal but not at the primary claim stage?
Vetaffairs has introduced an exciting new ‘ESO News’ page which aims to keep you up-to-date on current activities in the ex-service organisation community.
