Description

Whole Health is an approach to healthcare that empowers and equips people to take charge of their health and well-being and to live their life to the fullest. The Whole Health System (WHS) includes conventional treatment, but also focuses on selfempowerment, self-healing, and self-care. The Whole Health System moves VA forward from focusing on episodic care to a more continuous engagement with the Veteran throughout his/her life. The Whole Health System model is the current vision for complementary and integrative health (CIH) integration in VA and includes three central components: 1) EMPOWER: The Pathway 2) EQUIP: Well-Being Programs 3) TREAT: Whole Health Clinical Care
