On Thu 9 Nov 23, I will be heading to Wagga Wagga to engage with the local veteran community, MPs, and civic leaders. Our aim is to discuss the progress made within the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA), advise on how to address systemic issues now that the right leadership is in place in DVA, and ask about the challenges faced by veterans and veteran families in rural Australia. I feel we can forecast when the positive changes will be felt in the veteran community at large. We are fortunate to have direct access to key decision-makers such as the Secretary, Deputy Secretaries, Deputy President, and Repatriation Commissioner. By sharing the veteran perspective, we can work together to find workable solutions. For instance, we can ask why a seriously ill veteran has been denied hospital treatment and get them back into hospital, then as a DVA/Veteran team exercise analyse the factors that influenced the original decision with no blame attached.  By taking that approach we are finding that there are common triggers that cause what we would say are poor decisions, whether it's reevaluating certain documents, communicating better, or promoting cultural adjustment. There is still much to discover, and I will keep everyone informed through social media updates and visits to significant locations. Together, working with DVA, we can create positive change and improve the lives of veterans and their families.  Ian Lindgren Chairperson #VeteranCommunity #DVAImprovements #positivechange

A Call to Action for Veterans living in Toowoomba. Recent progress has been made with DVA, acknowledging the challenges veterans face when their DVA Card is declined or when unexpected co-payments arise. Additionally, there have been instances where the treatment recommendations from DVA seem unconventional with long taxi rides and other solutions. All veterans in Toowoomba are urged to fill out the form provided below as it is evident that only a limited number of medical service providers in Toowoomba accept DVA cards. Accurate information capture is essential to address this issue effectively with DVA. It’s important to note that we recognise that the fee schedule is in many cases insufficient to operate at a profit so there are very good reasons businesses stop providing a service to veterans. This data will help inform and bring together veterans, service providers and DVA to resolve the issues.. https://lnkd.in/gB9VZmci

I was asked today what our aim is in working so closely with DVA when once we did not. Given that leadership starts at the top, our aim is to work with DVA as a team of equals, with the objective of restoring its services to those that are optimised, repeatable and continuously improving. The outcome from this will be increased trust in DVA, and the development of mutual trust and respect by DVA public servants, veterans, veteran families, carers and the wider veteran support network. To date, given that major changes have seen the replacement of three Deputy Secretaries and the Repatriation Commissioner there is clearly new leadership afoot. Some of the positive stories are that we have participated in the first co-chaired meeting to jointly define the minimum standards of communication from DVA public servants to the veteran community. A wide variety of veterans attended and some such as the Australian Commando Association ACT and Villy Community Darwin really took the opportunity to lead. It was and still is a great experience. The lessons learned allowed me to volunteer to take a ministerial action item and walk it through DVA with the same collegial approach and this is working. This is significant because it identifies the processes that are good and not so good and highlights them. It’s also allowed me to attend meetings that have never had veteran participation before and gently shape the outcomes. Lastly, the same lessons learned were able to be applied to the Advocacy Working Group where under the previous leadership advocates were largely unable to be heard. Last Friday can only be described as the largest description of what was going wrong in advocacy under the previously accepted leadership approach and what is now going well due to Secretary Frame’s leadership. A big tick of approval. In closing I urge veterans, veteran families, carers and the wider veteran support network to take the opportunity to work with DVA public servants when it is offered. It is very rewarding and you can now have a wide ranging positive impact that will soon be widely felt at the grass roots levels. Steer clear of the social media sites that whish to drag you down with negativity because that’s how the owners get their power trips. Take the power into your own hands and make a difference. It won’t happen overnight but it will happen. When things don’t work please let us know. When things do work, don’t forget praise. It’s been a long hard road.
