Veterans may have experiences from their military service that present unique needs at the end of life. Because the unique needs of Veterans may require specific interventions, the first step to addressing these issues is to identify them as Veterans. The Military History Checklist is available to identify who is a Veteran, evaluate the impact of the experience and determine if there are benefits to which the Veteran and surviving dependents may be entitled. The Military History Checklist is a short and simple form that can easily be implemented within your organization.
