We have just launched a complete redesign of our website at www.ptsd.va.gov. We talked to Veterans, family members, providers and researchers and your feedback has led to many new features, some of which are highlighted below.
Key Changes
Overall, the new site design features
- A simplified homepage
- Content summaries at the top of pages
- Videos integrated into more of our educational pages
- Links at the top of long pages help you jump more quickly to desired content
- Mobile friendly - access information from your phone or tablet
User-Friendly Navigation
Our new menu options are designed to help users learn about PTSD and treatment, find out where to get help, and learn how to support those with PTSD. The new menu is designed to help people gets answers to their questions with fewer clicks.
Our mobile phone apps, videos, and Spanish content are now featured more prominently in the main menu.
In addition to the patient and family education menu items, clinicians and researchers will be interested in the links to our publications and searchable ptsd article database as well as the section especially for providers.
Information and Resources for Providers
The new "For Providers" menu includes a new section that pulls together our patient education resources in one place.
In addition, providers will continue to have access to our assessment measures, information about treating trauma and PTSD, our catalogue of online continuing education, and the experts in our PTSD Consultation Program (including the Monthly Lecture Series webinars).
The new "For Providers" menu will help clinicians navigate to submenus for:
- Assessment
