Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if she will list the 18 NHS acute trusts where Op RESTORE: The Veterans Physical Health and Wellbeing Service are located; and for what reason those trusts were selected.

Op RESTORE provides support to veterans with service-related physical health needs using existing National Health Service clinical pathways from clinicians who understand the military context. Clinically, Op RESTORE finds the best pathway and clinician to manage the veteran’s physical health need. This may not be local to the veteran or be with a military consultant, but it will be the most appropriate clinical support.

Op RESTORE has consultants in 21 NHS trusts across England and includes NHS Major Trauma Centres. Consultants supporting Op RESTORE are either serving, have served or have an understanding of the military environment, which means that Op RESTORE is able to access specialist clinical knowledge coupled with military contextual awareness to support veterans.

The list of trusts with Op RESTORE consultants is below:

- St Bartholomew’s Health NHS Trust;
