Book Assessing the Long Term Health Benefits of Medical Humanitarian Civic Assistance Missions

Download or read book Assessing the Long Term Health Benefits of Medical Humanitarian Civic Assistance Missions written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical humanitarian civic assistance (HCA) missions are not designed to provide long-term, sustainable health care improvements to developing nations. Joint doctrine and Title 10, U.S. Code limit HCA missions to: providing assistance in conjunction with military operations, satisfying unit training requirements and creating an incidental humanitarian benefit to local populations as unit training requirements are being met. While training requirements are always satisfied, little benefit is provided to the host nation populace. Missions in Eastern Europe, Africa and Thailand were analyzed for their current mission structure and impact on target populations. Three World Health Organization measures of effectiveness were used to identify health care improvements in Thailand, Botswana, Cameroon, Senegal and Zimbabwe. Analysis revealed HCA missions to Thailand had a positive impact on the health care standards but a similar HCA mission impact was not apparent for the African countries. Five alternatives to current doctrine and practices were identified to promote sustainable health care improvements without changing the basic structure or footprint of existing HCA missions. First, joint doctrine changes are needed if sustainable benefits become an objective. Second, a country wide strategic plan that addresses infrastructure as well as medical conditions is essential. Third, since no single entity has the unlimited resources to make substantial health care improvements, interagency coordination is crucial. Fourth, follow-up protocols provide assessment mechanisms to direct and redirect resources. Fifth, education and training initiatives are needed to target the underlying causes that prohibit or stifle lasting health care improvements. Without attention to these five mission factors it is doubtful HCA missions will provide sustained health care improvement.

Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material.

Download or read book Military Health Care written by Jomana Amara and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-02 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume surveys critical aspects of modern military health care in the US and various other Western countries with troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. In the United States, the military medical system, including care for veterans, is large and diverse and involves two institutions, the US Department of Defense (DoD) and the US Department of Veteran’s Affairs (VA). Studying the system gives practitioners and policy-makers an understanding of the larger picture of the military medical structure, facilitating thought about some of the difficulties and opportunities for coordinating treatments and preparing for the future. This book covers health care issues prior to deployment, such as screening for mental health, evaluating long-term consequences of exposure to military service, and provision of insurance; care during a conflict, primarily battlefield clinics, battlefield trauma care, and evacuation procedures; and post- combat care, including serious war injuries, psychiatric, and long-term care. Bringing together research from a wide range of contributors, the volume provides readers with an extensive, up-to-date source of information on military medicine. This book will be of great interest to students of public health, military sociology, the Iraq war, US public policy, and war and conflict studies in general.

This book was released on with total page 5351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 5,300 total pages .... MARINE RECON Reconnaissance units are the commander’s eyes and ears on the battlefield. They are task organized as a highly trained six man team capable of conducting specific missions behind enemy lines. Employed as part of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force, reconnaissance teams provide timely information to the supported commander to shape and influence the battlefield. The varying types of missions a Reconnaissance team conduct depends on how deep in the battle space they are operating. Division Reconnaissance units support the close and distant battlespace, while Force Reconnaissance units conduct deep reconnaissance in support of a landing force. Common missions include, but are not limited to: Plan, coordinate, and conduct amphibious-ground reconnaissance and surveillance to observe, identify, and report enemy activity, and collect other information of military significance. Conduct specialized surveying to include: underwater reconnaissance and/or demolitions, beach permeability and topography, routes, bridges, structures, urban/rural areas, helicopter landing zones (LZ), parachute drop zones (DZ), aircraft forward operating sites, and mechanized reconnaissance missions. When properly task organized with other forces, equipment or personnel, assist in specialized engineer, radio, and other special reconnaissance missions. Infiltrate mission areas by necessary means to include: surface, subsurface and airborne operations. Conduct Initial Terminal Guidance (ITG) for helicopters, landing craft, parachutists, air-delivery, and re-supply. Designate and engage selected targets with organic weapons and force fires to support battlespace shaping. This includes designation and terminal guidance of precision-guided munitions. Conduct post-strike reconnaissance to determine and report battle damage assessment on a specified target or area. Conduct limited scale raids and ambushes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the challenges faced by the US military in responding to "operations other than war" in the post-Cold War era, Rudolph Barnes makes a plea for the US government to address the "organizational bias for combat" and "narrow traditionalist view of military professionalism" within the Pentagon, which, he argues, are serious obstacles to developing an effective capabiilty for operations other than war. He draws on examples from Vietnam to the mismanagement of US military involvement in Somalia.

Book Responding to Violent Conflicts and Humanitarian Crises

Download or read book Responding to Violent Conflicts and Humanitarian Crises written by Pamela Aall and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-08 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the four principal sets of institutions that engage in bringing peace and relief to societies mired in violent conflicts and humanitarian crises—the United Nations and other international bodies; non-governmental organizations; civilian government agencies; and militaries. Because these institutions have distinct goals as well as overlapping mandates and activities on the ground, they do not always collaborate effectively, due in part to a lack of familiarity with how the other institutions are organized, make decisions or act on the ground. Despite declining public support for large-scale, state-building missions recently, more complex interagency efforts have evolved in partnership with host country governments. Numerous third parties continue to undertake peacebuilding, stabilization, and humanitarian relief measures around the globe. This book is intended primarily for those serving in the field, but it is also helpful to headquarters personnel and policymakers, as well as military and agency trainees and university students.
