Abstract
Military-connected children (MCC) face unique healthcare challenges that are often overlooked in civilian clinical settings. These children may experience frequent relocations, parental deployments, and unique stressors that can significantly impact their physical and mental health. This article discusses the I Serve 2: A Pocketcard for Healthcare Providers Caring for Military Children©, a valuable clinical tool that guides civilian healthcare professionals in providing high-quality healthcare to MCC. Recognizing these patients and understanding their unique needs is essential to providing comprehensive, culturally competent care.
