Let me clarify. You asked me for the thing I would change most. That's what I would change most. I think there are other areas that we need to improve, and giving access to assisted living is one of them. For me, I think we would get the biggest impact if we began working with veterans immediately upon their leaving the forces, stayed in touch with them over their lifespan, and made available to them health promotion strategies, activities, and links into programs. We should be able do that from the time they leave the forces.
