About The Book

<p>With the United States' involvement in numerous combat operations overseas the need for civilian social workers with the clinical skills necessary to work with members of the military returning from combat as well as their families has never been more critical. In this practical and important book each chapter is written by specialists in a particular area devoted to the care of service members and includes case material to demonstrate assessment and intervention approaches. The reader is introduced to the world of the military and the subsequent development of mental health services for returning men and women. Chapters look at special populations of service members with specific needs based directly on their experience in the military discussing post-traumatic stress disorder traumatic brain injury sexual harassment and assault during their service and the physiology of the war zone experience. The challenges faced by reintegrating service men and women are explored in detail and include family issues suicide and substance use disorders. A section on services available to returning service members looks at those offered by the Veterans Administration and at the use of animal-assisted interventions. The book concludes with a section devoted to unique concerns for the practitioner and explores ethical concerns they may face and their own needs as clinicians working with this population.</p>
