QPME: The Wounded Warriors

The signature wounds of this war, post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury, often go untreated due to delayed onset and a reluctance to seek help. TBI and PTSD care requires compassionate and supportive leadership; we must proactively engage at every opportunity to ensure we have the right treatments, available at the right time and accessible by all Marines regardless of their location. Understanding the signs, symptoms, and impacts of TBI and PTSD, as well as how the Wounded Warrior Regiments provides recovery care coordination, will enable leaders at all levels to keep the Marine Corps strong.
