Reserve Roles in Joint Medical Readiness

Abstract

The Reserve Components, as an integral part of the Total Force, must match capabilities and roles to proposed medical readiness re-engineering. The two reasons for this: (1) the services are downsizing and streamlining the medical corps, reducing the number of personnel available for deployments, and (2) the reserve medical personnel can provide the expansion and surge capabilities in specialized skills necessary for wartime operations. Training and recruitment need to be examined to meet the requirements resulting from Medical Readiness Re-engineering.
