1. "The
results of this study suggest that the VHA should consider changing its current
guidelines for vocational services and provide IPS as a commonly available
alternative intervention--and perhaps a preferred intervention--for all
unemployed veterans with PTSD. IPS
supported employment is patient centered in that it comprehensively addresses
individual vocational needs, potentially enhancing clinical recovery and
quality of life for veterans with PTSD" (Davis)
2. "Our findings support the ongoing efforts of the VA to expand employment rehabilitation and placement programs to overcome the post-recession economy for certain subgroups of disadvantaged
veterans. The efforts of the federal government to proactively focus on transition planning, increased educational and vocational training opportunities, efforts to align military training with civilian certifications, and permanent supportive housing may assist in insulating this vulnerable population
against further economic fluctuations" (O'Connor 4).
Paraphrasing:
1. I. Changes need to be made to the Veterans Affair's employment program. The solution to veterans' unemployment is to fix the current program by adding IPS support.The competitive work structure of IPS better fits the needs of veterans affected by PTSD (Davis)
II. IPS augmentation needs to be applied to the VA's programs for employment among veterans. Many occupational improvements are available to veterans with PTSD if IPS is implemented (Davis).
III. Large improvements in the VA's system for employment among veterans can be made by implementing IPS. The current system is not sufficient to cover veterans' needs if they have PTSD (Davis).
2. I. The VA's current programs regarding unemployment among particular veterans need some changes. Several areas in particular need to be improved so that the VA will be able to ensure success for the veterans in the current economy (O'Connor 4).
II. In the current economic situation, the Veterans Affair's efforts to get veterans employed can be improved in a couple of ways. The transition from military life to civilian life can be solved by education programs suited towards the state of the economy (O'Connor 4).
III. The VA's efforts to bring veterans from a military style life to a civilian style life need to be improved. By focusing on getting the veterans employed through better education and adaption programs, success can be guaranteed to them in the current economy.
Paragraph:
The Department of Veterans Affairs has several programs for veterans to take part in to become employed once they return to civilian life. However these programs are not without fault. From a psychological stand point, changes need to be made to the Veterans Affair's employment program. The solution to veterans' unemployment is to fix the current program by adding IPS support. The competitive work structure of IPS better fits the needs of veterans affected by PTSD (Davis). Another deficiency in the VA's program is that it does not factor in recent changes in the economy. In the current economic situation, the Veterans Affair's efforts to get veterans employed can be improved in a couple of ways. The transition from military life to civilian life can be solved by education programs suited towards the state of the economy and how veterans can properly adapt to it(O'Connor 4). Both the psychological and economic aspects need to be addressed when helping veterans with employment. Davis and O'Connor provide different perspectives on a similar problem. Both outline fixes that can be applied to the VA's programs to help a wide variety of veterans.
