The NHS has a duty to deliver on a number of health commitments, which are set out in the Armed Forces Covenant as follows:
This is reflected in principle four of the NHS Constitution, which states ‘the NHS will ensure that in line with the Armed Forces Covenant, those in the Armed Forces, reservists, their families and veterans are not disadvantaged in accessing health services in the area they reside’.
A veteran is anyone who has served for at least one day in the Armed Forces, whether regular or reserve. It means the same as ‘ex service personnel’ or ‘ex-forces’, although not all veterans know, choose or want to associate with the term ‘veteran’. This is particularly the case amongst younger veterans who often refer to themselves as ‘ex-forces’, due to the common belief that a veteran is someone who fought in the First / Second World War.
Please speak to a member of our practice team and let them know that you would like more information. You will be put in touch with Dr Grundy-Wheeler, a GP Partner at the practice who will get in touch with you to discuss further.
