VETERANS COVENANT HEALTHCARE ALLIANCE

The Veterans Covenant Healthcare Alliance (VCHA) is a group of NHS providers, including acute, mental health, community, and ambulance trusts that have agreed to be exemplars of the best care for, and support to, the armed forces' community... Our ambition is to accredit all NHS providers in England as Veteran Aware by the end of 2023 / first quarter of 2024. We are also piloting the accreditation of other healthcare organisations, including hospices and the Independent Sector... We work with NHS providers and commissioners and the independent healthcare sector, including hospices, care homes, and residential homes to improve care for the Armed Forces Community through the awarding of Veteran Aware accreditation.
