JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-CAMP BULLIS, Texas  –   Soldiers and Airmen participated in a Joint Critical Care Field Training Exercise at Joint Base San Antonio-Camp Bullis, March 6-7, to enhance the clinical and tactical skills of critical care staff at Brooke Army Medical Center.

The exercise focused on emergency medical response in simulated combat environments, critical care procedures, and multi-platform medical evacuation operations. Its goal was to prepare critical care nurses, licensed practical nurses, techs, medics, and providers to deliver high-quality care in austere and challenging conditions.

Two years ago, Army Capt. Anca Schneider, critical care nurse, volunteered to coordinate the Army Individual Critical Task Lists for BAMC’s critical care nurses. ICTL’s are lists of skills identified as critical for maintaining combat readiness in each military occupational specialty.
