Vets Health & Wellness

Veterans Health & Wellness

The health considerations of military personnel and veterans can be quite different than those of civilians. For example, they may have additional or different nutritional needs, as well as exposure to rare chemicals and diseases. They are also at increased risk for substance abuse, traumatic brain and bodily injuries, and behavioral health concerns due to the psychological toll of combat. DHHS, through the Division of Public and Behavioral Health (DPBH), is committed to the physical and psychological well-being of all of Nevada's veterans through its education, outreach and clinical programs.
