Rehabilitation support for active service members and veterans

At Acumen Health, we understand the challenges of military service and the transition from active duty to civilian life.

Our national experienced team of rehabilitation consultants support members and those navigating their transition.

We address all physical and psychosocial aspects to ensure a successful and sustainable return to work and daily life.

With a team that includes reservists, veterans, and defence spouses, we bring lived experience and a unique perspective to our work.

For over a decade, we’ve been dedicated to supporting veterans, driven by our passion for helping them reconnect with their communities and achieve lasting success through the right support.

Our services

Medical management
Our consultants help meet the health and wellbeing needs of our veteran clients.

The focus of medical management rehabilitation includes:

– Assisting veterans to develop skills and strategies to find and access health professionals in their geographic area
– Encouraging and assisting veterans to find and independently access veteran and family specific assistance programs from DVA and Open Arms
– Supporting veterans with chronic or complex health conditions to develop skills in building their health literacy and proactively manage their health and wellbeing
– Working with veterans to find resources and programs in their community that promote a focus on recovery and effective health self-management – these may include Veterans’ and Families’ Hubs

As a part of a whole of person approach, a medical management rehabilitation plan may also include psychosocial rehabilitation or vocational rehabilitation interventions to help veterans achieve their rehabilitation goals.
Psychosocial rehabilitation
We take a strengths-based approach to support veterans to overcome barriers impacting wellbeing, changing their perception of injury/illness, sense of self and perceptions of relationships within the community.
Vocational rehabilitation
Veterans have developed exceptional skills throughout their time as a serving member, many of which are transferrable to civilian employment.

Our team of experienced consultants can assist with developing new career goals, skills translation, personal branding and marketing, interviewing skills and support with adjusting to the civilian workplace.

And once civilian employment has been secured, we can also provide support navigating civilian workplace issues and ongoing career advice, should it be required.
