Background: There is a gap in the literature about the experiences of active-duty military students pursuing a graduate degree in health sciences at a university that emphasizes a military context. This exploratory study investigates how graduate students navigate stress in the context of a military university.
Method: The study applied a mixed-methods approach including a survey (N = 59) and in-depth interviews (N = 16) of students enrolled in a graduate program at the School of Medicine (368 students) and School of Nursing (187 students).
Purpose Of The Study: To determine the impact of integrated case management services versus treatment as usual (TAU) for patients diagnosed with diabetes and concomitant heart failure.
Primary Setting: This medical chart review was conducted at a single-site facility. The retrospective study design can be implemented at other facilities with a similar landscape.
