As we pause to honor Veterans Day, we at Millbrook Support Services, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), reaffirm our commitment to supporting the health and well-being of our nation’s veterans. We’re dedicated to providing lasting impact in the lives of veterans through our partnerships with VA Medical Centers (VAMCs) nationwide. For us, every day is an opportunity to serve those who have served.
Our Role in Supporting Veterans’ Healthcare Needs
VA Medical Centers are essential in providing specialized care to veterans, from mental health and rehabilitation to chronic illness management and preventative health. However, VAMCs face unique challenges in maintaining the necessary staffing levels to serve veterans effectively. Millbrook steps in to support VAMCs by placing skilled nurses, physicians, and allied health professionals who are trained not only in healthcare but in understanding the specific needs of veterans. Our approach means fewer staff shortages, faster access to care, and stronger overall support for veteran patients.
Why We’re Invested in VAMCs’ Success
Millbrook was founded with a mission to bring quality healthcare to underserved communities, and VAMCs are a significant part of that mission. By bridging the staffing gap in VA facilities, we’re helping veterans receive the specialized, timely care they deserve. Our healthcare professionals bring compassion, expertise, and commitment to each placement, ensuring that every veteran feels respected, valued, and supported on their journey to better health.
Beyond Staffing: Building Relationships and Trust
Our partnerships with VAMCs aren’t just about filling shifts—they’re about building relationships with facilities dedicated to serving veterans. By collaborating closely with VAMC administrators, we identify specific staffing needs and challenges and work to provide a continuous pipeline of qualified professionals, from travel nurses to permanent staff. This level of support ensures that VAMCs can deliver consistent, high-quality care to veterans, honoring their service with the healthcare resources they need.
Honoring Veterans Today and Every Day
This Veterans Day, Millbrook reaffirms its commitment to veterans and VA Medical Centers alike. By connecting experienced providers with VAMCs across the country, we’re ensuring that every veteran has access to the healthcare they’ve earned through their service. To all veterans: thank you for your courage and dedication. We are proud to stand with you, and through our partnerships with VAMCs, we’re dedicated to honoring and supporting you, not just today but every day.
