Script:
Renovations are under way at the Ste Anne De Bellevue Veterans Hospital near Montreal. The Canadian Forces has launched an effort in recent years to deal with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder within its veterans. The newest piece of that effort will be a new 10-bed residential facility here for victims. Hospital Psychiatrist Dr Norman Shields welcomes the new resource.
In: “Really what we’re looking at…”
Out: “…try and reflect on what’s happening to them.”

But Shields admits that the real challenge is not providing more beds for victims of PTSD. It’s removing the stigmas and the misconceptions associated with Operational Stress Injuries, so more veterans are motivated to seek treatment.
In: “Debunking the myth…”
Out”…or your weakness.”

The new residential treatment facility is scheduled to open this fall. In Ste Anne De Bellevue, Quebec, I’m Alex Leduc.

Good script – good interview – great use of nat sound. Your levels are off here — the interview subject is much too soft. See if you can adjust.

I really liked this Alex. Your interview subject is really well-spoken and has a lot of great things to say.
