Abstract

The Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Service provides a critical role in the assessment, management, and disposition of the newly injured combatant. This role has been well demonstrated during Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. Military physiatrists are uniquely suited to support military service members as they maximize their function and either return to duty or transition to civilian life.
