Walter Reed Army Medical Center
A top Army commander was fired today, Thursday March 1, 2007. Officials said they lost trust and confidence in his leadership abilities. Finally!
Allegations of poor conditions at the medical facilities for our Military Veterans is unspeakable. This makes me sick! Our returning veteran's deserve better.
Back in February wounded soldiers and their family members were complaining, specifically about a building that was a hotel and converted to a patient care center.
There was complaints of deplorable conditions. Rodent infestation, overworked personnel that made medical care at the hospital even more impossible. Mold, ragged carpets, mattresses that made healing even worst because of being so uncomfortable.
Already injured solders suffering from a multitude of injuries are already scared, and there were reports of no security.
There seems to be no compatible medical record keeping. The soldiers have to complete a multitude of medical processing forms, and because of ineptness, there have been reports that because of lost records, some had to " prove" they were actually in the Irag War or in the Afghanistan War! This is crazy!
Our men and women go to war to protect America and look what they return to!
Since the government has launched an investigation, has one taken notice of all the firings of other supposedly great officials?
They say that history repeats itself, and if this isn't a repeat of the Vietnam War, which was also unnecessary, I don't know what is.

Violence Against Women
March is Womens History Month, and that gives rise to violence against women which has been going on since the beginning of time and is a public health, and a human rights issue that "should" have a great impact on society.
Because violence against women occurs much too often, makes it a public health care problem as well. The system should be accountable for its victims when the victims first seek its services. The health care system needs to give them health care, but also legal, economic, and social support that is needed to fix their already fragile lives.
When it comes to addressing global concerns of violence against girls and women, society has a long way to go, but they are finally responding to this very important issue that is a plague in the entire world.
