Health Care Specialist
CurrentAs a medic in C Co. 325th BSB I served in the Treatment Platoon and Evacuation Platoon. As a member of the treatment platoon I was part of a group of medics who assembled, stocked and operated a Battalion Aid Station during field training exercises. Under the guidance of a PA or M.D., I have treated both acute and chronic illnesses and injuries, in a clinical and hostile setting. As a member of Evacuation Platoon I was a member of a 3 man team tasked to a Four Litter Ambulance for the purpose of treating, monitoring, and evacuating urgent category patients. I am well versed in a detailed patient trauma assessment and triage operations. I have received numerous Certificates of Achievements and Army Achievement Medals for my part in medical support operations with Charlie Co. For several months I was a Team Leader within my squad, where I assisted the squad leader with mission planning, assigning tasks to younger soldiers, and counseling my subordinates.
