tbi2OEF or OIF Female Veterans needed for TBI Thesis Study

by Mary Alt, CSU Stanislaus University

If you have sustained a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and are interested in sharing your experience as a female soldier in either one of these wars, please contact me.

My name is Mary Alt and I am a Master of Social Work student interested in veteran’s healthcare issues.  There is an insufficient amount of information regarding our female veterans who have sustained a TBI. 

These TBI affected female soldiers are returning home from their deployment to assume their roles as primary caretakers, wives, daughters, sisters and other significant relationships as they re-enter mainstream society.

     

Your participation in this small but significant study could possibly lay the groundwork for future studies on female veterans and healthcare issues, in particularly a TBI.  The effects that a TBI has on a female veteran as compared to her male counterpart are not well known.  Research literature tends to collectively include men only or both men and women without differentiating gender-specific findings. 

As a female veteran your participation could help to bring awareness to healthcare issues for female veterans and how these healthcare issues can be addressed by those in charge of VA healthcare services.

I am interested in hearing your story.  I want to know your story.  Your privacy will be protected.  Your participation is completely voluntary and you can choose to end the interview at any time.
 
If you are interested, please contact me at maryalt@mindspring.com.

Thank you for your service to our country and Welcome Home!
