Improving Care for Wounded Warriors: Warrior Care and Transition Program
Improving Care for Wounded Warriors: Warrior Care and Transition Program
February 06, 2009
The transformation of U.S. Army Warrior Care began in April 2007 with the development of the Army Medical Action Plan (AMAP), which outlined an organizational and cultural shift in how the Army cares for its wounded, ill and injured Soldiers. Over the past 22 months, the AMAP has evolved into the Army Warrior Care and Transition Program (WCTP), fully integrating Warrior Care into institutional processes across the Army, and achieving many of the Army’s goals for enhancing care and improving the transition of wounded warriors back to duty or into civilian life as productive veterans.
