Caring for Veteran Women: Collaborative Nursing Approaches to Improve Care

Anna Strewler et al. Nurs Clin North Am. 2022 Sep.

Abstract

A strength-based nursing approach to recommendations for interpersonal collaboration and communication is used when caring for Veteran women in health care settings. Four areas are emphasized: (1) using trauma-informed health care practices; (2) acknowledging and affirming the intersectional identities of Veteran women to individualize care and counteract health disparities; (3) engaging strategies to enhance a sense of belonging for Veteran women in health care settings; and (4) encouraging Veteran women to participate in potential research studies to better understand and improve care for this population.

Keywords: Communication skills; Strength-based nursing; Veteran women.
