Veteran Chronic Pain: Identity and Re-Integration

When:
December 1, 2021
from
1200 – 1300 EST
Event Overview

On December 1, we will discuss military culture and the identity of military members. Dr. Jim Thompson from the Canadian Institute for Military and Veteran Health Research (CIMVHR) and Tom Hoppe MSC, MB, CD, MA, Chair of the CPCoE Advisory Council for Veterans, will share their research and experiences on the topic. The change in identity has an impact on individuals when they leave the military, especially as it relates to those with chronic pain. We will transition from identity to re-integration. Tom Carter, Dr. Elisabeth Saxton, and Eryn Weldon from CBI Health will join us to discuss how they work to reconnect Veterans with their families, hobbies, and lives. The series will be uploaded to our website shortly after completion.
