Saw this posted on LinkedIn. This is a great policy change that will benefit veterans in times of crisis.
"Starting Jan. 17, Veterans in acute suicidal crisis will be able to go to any VA or non-VA health care facility for emergency health care at no cost – including inpatient or crisis residential care for up to 30 days and outpatient care for up to 90 days. Veterans do not need to be enrolled in the VA system to use this benefit."

This is fantastic news; thank you for sharing. From personal experience, to help those who may need it or know someone who may need this help- The Vines in Ocala, Florida, has a military-only ward for both men and women called HOPE. The professionals at The Vines, including the military director, are the best. I would not be here today if it weren't for my BH professional and The Vines. For those who need to hear this, you're worth being here; you have value and are loved. Please reach out for help if needed.
