Just Left the Services

It is important to register with a GP as soon as you leave the forces rather than wait until you need treatment.

You will need to give the practice the paperwork that your military medical centre gave you on discharge. This will help to make sure your military health record transfers to your NHS health record. This will also give your GP information on your health and ensure that any ongoing care and treatment is continued.

Veterans

Regardless of when you left the military, tell us that you’ve served in the UK Armed Forces. This will help us understand any military related health conditions that you may have and ensure that you are referred, where appropriate, to dedicated services for veterans. This includes the specialist mental and physical health services.

When using these services, you It can sometimes be helpful for your doctor to refer you to Armed Forces charities, such as SSAFA, the Royal British Legion, Combat Stress or Help for Heroes.

  • Understand the Armed Forces and military life
  • Are either from the Armed Forces community or highly experienced in working with serving personnel, reservists, veterans and their families
  • Will work with you to make sure you get the right type of specialist care, support, and treatment
  • Work closely with a range of organisations and charities, including military charities, to support your wider health and wellbeing needs.
