[QUOTE]Originally posted by Masao: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [qb] ...Anyone know what the medical staff is on USN warships? Mark [/qb][/QUOTE]I've asked a similar med staffing question to a USN officer (and SF Museum visitor) aboard USS Bataan (an amphibious assault ship). Q: Do all ships have medical doctors aboard? If not, how large does a crew have to be before it is assigned a doctor? On ships with large crews, what is the approximate ratio of crewmen to doctors? A: Right now I have 2 doctors and a Dentist to treat a crew of 1100 or so. On a Cruiser, they have one doctor to about 400 crew members. The Docs, though, will have Hospital Corpsmen to assist them in screening and treating patients. On BATAAN, I have the fourth largest hospital in the state of Virginia as far as beds are concerned (600), but we do not receive any additional medical personnel until we deploy with a Fleet Surgical Team. The FST has additional surgeons, nurses, and corpsmen to handle any battle field casualties, like we did in Afganistan. [/QB][/QUOTE]
