Recovery
Begins at the point of injury or diagnosis, and ends with
release from acute inpatient care (discharge from hospital).
Key events in Recovery may include:
* Notification of wound, illness, or injury to family members
* Family or caregiver receives Invitational Travel Orders to
travel to hospital bedside
* Arrival at a military treatment facility in the U.S.
* Treatments begin in a hospital setting
* Medical Assessment by a team of physicians, and a determination
of the category rating of the injury (Not Seriously Injured, Seriously
Injured, or Very Seriously Injured)
* Non-Medical Needs Assessment to determine the service member’s
and family’s financial and other needs
* Development of a Comprehensive Recovery Plan (CRP), including
targets and goals to serve as a road map through recovery.
Medical treatments are the top priority during this phase of
treatment.
