LIFESAVING LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT


clinical laboratory, blood banking, radi- ology, nutrition care services, emergency treatment receiving, triage and preparing incoming patients for surgery. Within the hospital, surgical capabilities include general, orthopedic, thoracic, urological, gynecological, and oral and maxillofa- cial—based on six operating room tables staffed for 96 operating table hours per day. Consultation services for inpatients and outpatients include area support for units without organic medical services.


Role 3 capabilities include resuscitation, initial wound surgery, postoperative care and more advanced ancillary services. To maintain their success rate, CSHs need significant maintenance support as well as regular modernization to keep them updated and fully operational. Addition- ally, many pieces of lifesaving medical equipment, such as CT scanners, are expensive and technically sophisticated, requiring specialized equipment care and calibrations performed by certified maintainers. By centrally managing four CSHs through the MMRP, USAMMA is able to ensure that medical materiel requiring a significant level of regular maintenance is fully operational at all times and capable of being deployed to support active and reserve units based on the needs of the mission.


Tough the MMRP was first developed as part of the Army Medical Department investment strategy to support the Army force-generation model, the program now supports the sustained readiness model, underscoring the need for all Army units to be ready to deploy at all times. As mis- sion demands grow and resources shrink, it is imperative that these four CSHs are sustained at the highest state of readiness. Anything less is not an option.


Since its development, MMRP has been called on by the Army several times. In

FULL SPECTRUM OF CARE


A nurse from the 212th CSH attends to a simulated victim at a mass casualty (MASCAL) event in June 2016 during Exercise Anakonda 2016, a Polish-led multinational exercise of about 31,000 participants and a premier training event for U.S. Army Europe. CSHs can offer intensive nursing care for up to 48 patients and intermediate care for up to 200. (Photo by Sgt. 1st Class John Fries, 326th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment)


CSH SUPPORTS CASUALTY EXERCISES


Lt. Col. Anita Lesure, a Soldier with the 801st CSH and head nurse of the operating room, examines a patient’s chart to decide further treatment during a MASCAL exercise simulating a helicopter crash with 32 casualties at Fort Hunter Liggett, California, in May 2016. Medics gave battlefield aid and evacuated the casualties to the CSH. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Kimberly Browne, 350th Public Affairs Detachment)
