Enhancing occupational therapy service provision with military veterans through policy reform: Findings from a national survey.

Australian occupational therapists are providing a range of services to Department of Veterans' Affairs clients although mostly relating to physical conditions. Occupational therapy practice with former Australian Defence Force members should be expanded to meet their diverse and complex needs. Further research and education are needed to support use of specialist knowledge and interventions. Advocacy by peak associations and policy reform are urgently required to ensure sustainable services, particularly in rural areas.
