About Veterans Nexcare
Founded in 2022, Veterans Nexcare is a community outreach program based in Jacksonville Florida working to primarily address the mental health needs of veterans who are suffering from secondary conditions related to their service connected injury. Even though we are based in Jacksonville Florida, any veteran residing within the continental US can seek our services and support.
We do not solely serve veterans with traumatic noise exposure. However, according to VA Health Services Research & Development, more than 35,500 veterans were assessed for auditory processing dysfunction across the VA health care system; just over 2,000 received a diagnosis of central auditory processing disorder. For us, this is not acceptable!
Veterans who are suffering the psychological effects of PTSD, traumatic noise exposure, or other service connected injuries may manifest symptoms such as increased physiologic stress response, adverse social consequences, sleep disturbance, and detrimental economic effects.
PTSD and/or Traumatic noise exposure can cause:
- Difficulty falling asleep
- Inability to stay asleep
- Waking too early
- Concentration issues
- Decreased cognitive
- performance
- Distorted hearing (Paracusis)
