I am not trying to be a jerk but have you examined the actual study? Seriously? They surveyed a little over 500 respondants nationwide? How many Veterans are using the VAMC on an inpatient and outpatient basis throughout the United States?
I have worked with some exceptional folks from the VA's across the U.S. and with some folks who should not be treating anyone at all. Back to this bullshite study...
Was this sample representative? NOPE
Were they combat or noncombat Veterans? DOES NOT SPECIFY
Service connected? DOES NOT SPECIFY
Outpatient or inpatient? DOES NOT SPECIFY
Male or female? DOES NOT SPECIFY
Ethnicity? DOES NOT SPECIFY
Did quality of treatment match satisfaction level?
DOES NOT SPECIFY
Did you know that most LEGITIMATE RESEARCH AND SURVEYS of individuals served by the VAMC show a generally downward trend in satisfaction with wide variation based on race, gender, outpatient or inpatient care, hx of mental illness, and combat experience?
I did not think so. Next time you try to post something to have a GOTCHA moment I suggest you do not simply assume that the source is trustworthy. A little over 500 respondants is equal to a non-representative sample of satisfied customers who are happy to respond.

I know all about statistics, 500 is more than enough people to get a more or less accurate result.
