Abstract | The oral and written testimony recorded in this report considered a number of amendments to the Vocational Rehabilitation Program, as well as the administration of programs by the Veterans' Administration (VA) and its hospitals. Among the legislation reviewed were proposals to: (1) improve the VA's capability to provide services to veterans suffering from mental illness through the designation of centers for mental illness research, education, and clinical activities; (2) start a pilot program to provide assistive animals to veterans who are service disabled; (3) extend the VA's authority to continue major health care programs; (4) authorize the appointment of VA-trained graduates in certain health care occupations without regard to civil service hiring procedures; (5) extend by 1 year the VA's authorization to furnish respite care to chronically ill veterans; and (6) provide new categories of veterans with eligibility for readjustment counseling. Texts of the proposed legislation are included in the report. (KC) |
