Answer to Question 1

1
Perhaps the most visible of all veteran's benefits is health care. The VA does provide benefits and support to over 100,000 homeless veterans each year; however, this number is substantially lower than the number of veterans who utilize health care benefits. The VA does not provide banking or retirement services.

Answer to Question 2

4
Social isolation is a common concern for clients with this diagnosis. The client should be encouraged to join a support group. A support group will not help with fatigue, infection, or anxiety.
