Job Description:
Be the first line of defense against injury and illness of
civilians after natural disasters, and the Soldiers who serve and
protect our Nation every day. As a Health Care Specialist in the
Army National Guard, you will experience a fulfilling role as an
expert caretaker on and off the battlefield.
You will address the health care needs of civilians after natural
disasters or civil emergencies; treat injuries and illnesses
suffered by Soldiers through the administration of immediate
emergency care and ongoing care; and support and manage medical
readiness, supplies, and equipment.
Job Duties
* Administer emergency medical treatment to battlefield
casualties
* Assist with outpatient and inpatient care and treatment
* Instruct Soldiers on Combat Lifesaver/First Responder training
course
* Manage Soldiers' medical readiness, medical supplies, and
equipment

* Plaster casting techniques
Helpful Skills
* Enjoy helping and caring for others
* Ability to communicate effectively and work under stressful
conditions
* Interest in chemistry, biology, psychology, general science, and

Through your training, you will develop the skills and experience
to enjoy a civilian career with civilian hospitals, clinics,
nursing homes, or rehabilitation centers. You may also consider a
career as an emergency medical technician, medical assistant, a
medication aide, or physician's assistant. Soldiers in this MOS
must also obtain certification from the National Registry of
Emergency Medical Technicians at the EMT level or higher.
Earn While You Learn
Instead of paying to learn these skills, get paid to train. In the
Army National Guard, you will learn these valuable job skills while
earning a regular paycheck and qualifying for tuition
assistance.
Job training for Health Care Specialists requires 10 weeks of Basic
Training, where you'll learn fundamental Soldiering skills, and 16
weeks of Advanced Individual Training (AIT), which includes
practice in patient care. The duration of your AIT depends on the
area of specialization you choose. Part of AIT is spent in the
classroom and part in the field.
