This information are never used in public. They are only suggested by the specialist and designated doctors.

no, youre wrong.

it has nothing to do with OPSEC, only the fact that theres no set medication list. pretty much we carry what we want to carry, besides a few major ones that are required, i.e. hetastarch, lactated ringers, morphine, tylenol, ibuprofen, loperamide, etc.

How do combat medics help patients?

Combat Medics do many different things to help their patients. In a garrison environment, the medic runs daily sick call, tracks the unit's medical readiness, provides medical coverage for firing or demolition ranges and provides general medical guidance. When the unit deploys, the medic does all those same things, in addition to going on every mission the unit goes on. If the unit comes under attack, the medic is in charge of triage, care under fire, tacticle field care and evacuation of all casualties. Basically, the Combat Medic handles everything in the unit that has anything to do with anyone's physical well-being. Combat Medics are trained in many skills. They are taught many different kinds of splints. They can give medications. They can manage a person's airway, or, if there is no airway, create one. Medics are also trained to suppress enemy fire and do all the same things that any other soldier is taught.


What are field medics or combat medic credentials?

They're called "Healthcare Specialist" now, with the reorganisation which took place from 2002 - 2004. Previously, Combat Medics did not even possess a basic EMT licence. Now, as "Healthcare Specialists", they do, and better opportunities are provided to them to upgrade to EMT-I or EMT-P. Good stuff.
