The recent decision by the VA to mandate a return to in-person work has sparked significant concern among employees, particularly in Indianapolis, where staff fear disruptions and are feeling pressured to quit. Additionally, Democrats are raising questions regarding the implications of this policy, questioning VA Secretary about the potential disruptions caused by the transition. A critical issue that has emerged is the new directive given to VA therapists, who have been instructed that they cannot guarantee complete confidentiality to veterans during their sessions. This directive has raised alarms about the privacy and trust crucial to effective mental health treatment.
