ABOUT US
Healthcare professionals can achieve significant improvements in physical and mental health issues, but often there can be other challenges that someone in the Armed Forces Community faces that can inhibit their recovery. Mental health concerns, drivers behind substance abuse, social isolation, inappropriate housing, homelessness, or financial worries can affect someone’s health. DMWS tackles these non-clinical issues that can negatively impact on recovery and overall wellbeing.
