THE SETTING - Jacksonville, NC
Onslow County is Americas fastest-growing county over the past five years, according to a federal agency that tracks economics. Onslow's booming economy is fueled by Marines and sailors stationed at Camp Lejeune and New River Air Station, according to a recent report in the Charlotte Business Journal. The military, agriculture and tourism are the top three economic areas for North Carolina, which bodes well that they are also the top for Onslow County, she said. And Jacksonville is just 30 minutes from Emerald Isle and 55 minutes from historic Wilmington, NC, both favorite coastal resort destinations with pristine beaches and blue water.

Some services available aboard Camp Lejeune include: childcare, shopping, education, family support, hunting and fishing, dining, boating and swimming. Some facilities on base include banks and credit unions, the commissary, the library, hobby shops, fitness centers, the beach, theaters and more. From the supporting infrastructure, a tradition of excellence in doing day-to-day business has evolved. From environmental programs that include a state-of-the-art landfill and water treatment system to quality of life programs that ensure Marine families are taken care of, Camp Lejeune stands out as a superior military base.

OVERVIEW
This position is for Wounded, Ill, and Injured initiatives under the WII program. The program seeks to address gaps in the care available for the prevalent injuries and illnesses among service members retiring from active duty in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as the difficulties of transitioning from military to veteran status. The WII program is directed by the President, Congress, and the Department of Defense (DoD) and addresses concerns about the quality and availability of medical, mental health, and dental care services. Through adoption of risk based staffing models and a uniform, best practice standard of care across DoD, the program seeks to ensure easy, rapid access to care for all beneficiaries and to ensure that transition across networks of care recognizes the unique care coordination requirements for WII patients. The WII program focuses on care and treatment to injured and ill service members, studies, case managers, inspections, policies, and other initiatives to improve the management of wounded personnel.
