This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication (ATP) 4-02.55 provides guidance to the medical commander, medical planner, and command surgeon at all levels of command in planning Army Health System (AHS) support for unified land operations. The AHS is a complex system of interrelated and interdependent systems which provides a continuum of medical treatment from point of injury or wounding through successive roles of medical care to definitive, rehabilitative, and convalescent care in the continental United States (CONUS), as required. Planning is an essential element which facilitates the successful accomplishment of the Army Medical Department (AMEDD) mission. The medical planner, by carefully applying AMEDD doctrine and principles, is able to provide the best possible AHS for all Army operations. The AHS provides support to forces deployed across the full range of military operations with its various operational arrangements. The AHS is a complex system of highly synchronized, interrelated and interdependent systems comprised of ten medical functions. It is a system of systems. The medical functions align with medical disciplines and specialty training with the capabilities required to provide state-of-the-art care to Soldiers regardless of where they are deployed or assigned. The functions include: medical mission command, medical treatment (area support), hospitalization, dental services, preventive medicine services, combat and operational stress control, veterinary services, medical evacuation, medical logistics, and medical laboratory.

This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Army Health System" FM 4-02 provides doctrine for the Army Health System (AHS) in support of the modular force. The AHS is the overarching concept of support for providing timely AHS support to the tactical commander. It discusses the current AHS force structure modernized under the Department of the Army (DA)-approved Medical Reengineering Initiative and the Modular Medical Force that is designed to support the brigade combat teams (BCTs) and echelons above brigade (EAB) units. As the Army's AHS doctrine statement, this publication identifies medical functions and procedures that are essential for operations covered in other Army Medical Department (AMEDD) proponent manuals. This publication depicts AHS operations from the point of injury, illness, or wounding through successive roles of care within the area of operations (AO) and evacuation to the continental United States (CONUS)-support base. It presents a stable body of operational doctrine rooted in actual military experience and serves as a foundation for the development of AMEDD proponent manuals on how the AHS supports unified land operations. The AHS mission falls within two warfighting functions: sustainment and protection.

This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This field manual (FM), “Combat Health Support in Stability Operations and Support Operations,” establishes the combat health support (CHS) doctrine and provides the principles for providing CHS in stability operations and support operations. It is designed for use by personnel involved in CHS planning for stability operations and support operations and command surgeons (at all levels of command) and their staffs. Although the Army's primary focus is to fight and win our nation's wars, it is often employed in stability and support operations. In stability and support operations, the Army executes missions in both peace and conflict: what combat does occur is limited to the minimum necessary to support the political objectives. The primary recipients of combat service support (CSS) in stability and support operations are likely to be civilians (US or foreign), rather than US combat forces as in war. THE CHS planner must be capable of adapting traditional methods of health care delivery, leveraging technology, and establishing new procedures to meet the challenges presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) has saved hundreds of lives during our nation's conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Nearly 90 percent of combat fatalities occur before a casualty reaches a medical treatment facility. Therefore, the prehospital phase of care is needed to focus on reducing the number of combat deaths. However, few military physicians have had training in this area and, at the onset of hostilities, most combat medics, corpsmen, and pararescue personnel in the U.S. military have been trained to perform battlefield trauma care through civilian-based trauma courses. These courses are not designed for the prehospital combat environment and do not reflect current practices in the area of prehospital care. TCCC was created to train Soldiers and medical personnel on current best practices for medical treatment from the point of injury to evacuation to Role 3 facilities

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, “Army Health System,” provides the capstone doctrine for the Army Health System (AHS) in support of the modular force. The Army Health System is the overarching concept of support for providing timely medical support to the tactical commander. It discusses the current medical force structure modernized under the Department of the Army (DA) approved Medical Reengineering Initiative and the Modular Medical Force that is designed to support the brigade combat teams and echelons above brigade units. As the Army's capstone medical doctrine statement, this publication identifies medical functions and procedures that are essential for operations covered in other Army Medical Department (AMEDD) proponent manuals. This publication depicts Army Health System operations from the point of injury, illness, or wounding through successive roles of care within the theater and evacuation to the continental United States (CONUS) support base. It presents a stable body of operational doctrine rooted in actual military experience and serves as a foundation for the development of AMEDD proponent manuals on how the AHS supports the modular force. The AHS is a component of the Department of Defense (DOD) Military Health System. It is responsible for the operational management of the health service support (HSS) and force health protection (FHP) missions for training, predeployment, deployment, and post deployment operations. The AHS includes all mission support services performed, provided, or arranged by the AMEDD to support HSS and FHP mission requirements for the Army and as directed, for joint, intergovernmental agencies, and multinational forces. Although Joint doctrine describes the capabilities of the Military Health System as a taxonomy of care, this description does not adequately address how the AMEDD must organize and equip its forces to successfully accomplish the health care delivery in the noncontiguous operational environment. Therefore, the AHS is in consonance with and supports the concept of the taxonomy of care, but AMEDD support is discussed in terms of capability packages specifically designed to support Army formations. Although the Military Health System is an interrelated system which may share medical services, capabilities, and specialties among the Service components, it is not a joint mission command system. Each Service component develops its medical resources to support its Service-specific mission. This results in the development of different types of organizations with varying levels of capability, mobility, and survivability. Although joint medical resources may have similar nomenclature to describe the unit, they are not usually interchangeable.

This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, "Army Health System Support to Maneuver Forces, ATP 4-02.3" addresses Army Health System (AHS) support to maneuver forces as we have seen in Field Manuals (FM) 4-02.4, FM 4-02.6, and FM 4-02.21. Army Health System resources (personnel and equipment) are organic to a variety of organizations within the brigade combat teams (BCTs). The numbers of personnel, medical equipment, and unit capabilities for providing organic AHS support also varies depending upon the parent formation/organization. It is essential for AHS planners to understand how AHS resources are arrayed across the battlefield and the capabilities and limitations of the various medical assets that are used across the range of military operations in support of the warfighting functions in the conduct of unified land operations and in pursuit of decisive action in any operational environment (OE). To facilitate this understanding, this publication uses the infantry brigade combat team (IBCT) base table of organization and equipment (TOE) for illustrative purposes only. Variances will exist between what is included in this publication and the actual modified TOEs of deployed units. These variances may be due to updates of areas of concentration (AOCs), military occupational specialties (MOSs), and military grades and modifications made to unit's TOE which result in the unit's modified TOE or updates to the base TOEs reflecting Total Army Analysis findings and judgments. Where significant differences exist in the base TOEs of the BCTs, an explanation of these differences is provided.

This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, “Health Service Support (Joint Publication 4-02),” provides doctrine for the planning, preparation, and execution of health service support across the range of military operations. The Military Health System supports the operational mission by fostering, protecting, sustaining, and restoring health. It also provides the direction, resources, health care providers, and other means necessary for promoting the health of the beneficiary population. The principles of health service support (HSS) consist of conformity, proximity, flexibility, mobility, continuity, and control. Conformity with the tactical plan is the most basic element for effectively providing health support. Medical planners must be involved early in the planning process, and once the plan is established, it must be rehearsed with the forces it supports. The principle of proximity is to provide health support to sick, injured, and wounded military personnel at the right time and to keep morbidity and mortality to a minimum. Flexibility is being prepared and empowered to shift medical resources to meet changing requirements. The medical commander must build flexibility into the operation plan (OPLAN) to support the combatant commander's (CCDR's) scheme of maneuver. The principle of mobility is to ensure that medical assets remain within supporting distance of maneuvering forces. Continuity of care and treatment is achieved by moving the patient through progressive, phased roles of care, extending from the point of injury or wounding to the US-support base. Each type of medical unit contributes a measured, logical increment of care appropriate to its location and capabilities. Control is required to ensure that scarce medical resources are efficiently employed and support the tactical and strategic plan. It also ensures that the scope and quality of medical treatment meet professional standards, policies, and US and international law. Health support is provided to military personnel by applying prevention, protection, and treatment capabilities. The five overarching joint medical capabilities for HSS are: first responder care capability, forward resuscitative care capability, theater hospitalization capability, definitive care capability, and en route care capability. This publication has been prepared under the direction of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It sets forth joint doctrine to govern the activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the United States in joint operations and provides the doctrinal basis for US military coordination with other US Government agencies during operations and for US military involvement in multinational operations. It provides military guidance for the exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force commanders (JFCs) and prescribes joint doctrine for education and training. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from organizing the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the overall objective.

Download or read book Making the Soldier Decisive on Future Battlefields written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military does not believe its soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines should be engaged in combat with adversaries on a "level playing field." Our combat individuals enter engagements to win. To that end, the United States has used its technical prowess and industrial capability to develop decisive weapons that overmatch those of potential enemies. In its current engagement-what has been identified as an "era of persistent conflict"- the nation's most important weapon is the dismounted soldier operating in small units. Today's soldier must be prepared to contend with both regular and irregular adversaries. Results in Iraq and Afghanistan show that, while the U.S. soldier is a formidable fighter, the contemporary suite of equipment and support does not afford the same high degree of overmatch capability exhibited by large weapons platforms-yet it is the soldier who ultimately will play the decisive role in restoring stability. Making the Soldier Decisive on Future Battlefields establishes the technical requirements for overmatch capability for dismounted soldiers operating individually or in small units. It prescribes technological and organizational capabilities needed to make the dismounted soldier a decisive weapon in a changing, uncertain, and complex future environment and provides the Army with 15 recommendations on how to focus its efforts to enable the soldier and tactical small unit (TSU) to achieve overmatch.
Download or read book Combat Health Support of the Transformation Force in 2015 written by Steven F. Gouge and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army is undergoing transformation to enhance its power projection capability to meet the requirements expected for 21st century combat. The role of the Army Medical Department is to conserve the fighting strength through preventive medicine, evacuation, and treatment of the sick and wounded. Minimizing death and morbidity requires appropriate and timely evacuation and treatment. Joint medical doctrine has been changed to emphasize evacuation of less-stable patients out of theater and decrease the theater hospital footprint. Review of recent military operations indicates that hospital care has played a large role and that prolonged evacuation resulted in increased mortality. However, deployed hospitals are large and slow to deploy. Army transformation will result in units that are rapidly deployable and can enter combat upon arrival in a theater of operations. Combat, especially forced entry operations, results in casualties that must be cared for. Current Army medical force structure does not support the operations considered likely with Army transformation. The Army Medical Department must transform to provide high quality combat casualty care to the Army of 2015.
