It is the policy of the state to utilize this valuable resource in the protection and promotion of the health of the inhabitants of the state. For that purpose the department of health is hereby vested with responsibility for the identification of veterans health manpower resources and the recruitment and qualification of veterans having experience in health fields for employment in health service occupations.
