Capt. McHuy McCoy, (center), staff physician at Tripler Army Medical Center, or TAMC, squadron flight surgeon at 2-6 Cavalry Squadron, 25th Combat Aviation Brigade, and co-facilitator of the course, "Simulation Training for Operational Medicine Providers," discusses operational medicine with TAMC Resident Physicians Capt. Vladimir Fridkin, (left), and Capt. Joseph Gutierrez, (right), to prepare them to serve as general medical officers in operational and field environments upon completion of the TAMC residency or transitional year internship program. The STOMP program at TAMC provides a necessary foundational knowledge base for the general medical officer as he/she prepares to provide medical support to soldiers and their chain of command in operational medicine and field environments. Specially designed for Army Medicine residents and interns, this simulation course offers participants an opportunity to meet with subject matter experts from the TAMC Emergency Department, Family Medicine, General Surgery, Musculoskeletal, Neurosurgery, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Operational Medicine, Orthopedics, and Urology Departments to learn, practice, and demonstrate patient care skills through the use of simulation training. The TAMC Medical Simulation Center uses multi-specialty simulation training to enhance graduate medical education programs ensuring residents are “trained, competent, safe and ready” to care for our soldiers and beneficiaries.
