Integrating Veteran Healthcare into Nursing Curricula: In the students ’ Words

Women voluntarily joined the United States Armed Forces in large numbers during Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF/OIF) (Levander& Overland,  2015). The post-9/11 female veteran population represent the largest living cohort of female veterans (U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 2017; U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 2018). Today, there are more women veterans than at any other time in our history and the number is expected to increase in the next ten years as military service in defense of our nation is valued (Ganzer, 2016; Levander& Overland,  2015).
