Which member of the Triad provides acute and wellness services for Warriors in Transition?

• A. Nurse Practitioner
• B. Primary Care Manager
• C. Physical Therapist
• D. Mental Health Counselor

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is that care for Warriors in Transition is organized around a medical home approach, where a Primary Care Manager coordinates the overall medical care within the triad. The Primary Care Manager provides the ongoing, broad-spectrum care needed for both acute issues and wellness. They handle prompt treatment for illnesses or injuries, arrange preventive services like screenings and immunizations, and guide the Warrior through what services are needed and when to pursue them. This role keeps care continuous and integrated, working with the other two team members—the nurse case manager, who arranges and tracks referrals and ensures access to specialists, and the mental health professional, who addresses psychosocial and mental health needs. The other roles contribute essential support, but the Primary Care Manager is the one responsible for the routine, day-to-day medical home care that covers both acute and preventive/wellness services.
