Episode notes
Live from Eagle Ops Vet Fest, host Ryan "Bacon" Nelson sits down with Kellie Zimmerman, Women Veterans Outreach Coordinator and a registered nurse with eight years at the VA, to talk about the care built for women who served.
Women veterans are the fastest-growing demographic at the VA, and their healthcare needs are distinct — from the physical toll of military service to high rates of military sexual trauma. Kellie explains how the Women Veterans Program delivers care across every phase of life, from reproductive health through menopause, with MyChart access, dedicated clinics designed for privacy and safety, and continuous provider training. "This is not your grandfather's VA."
