Chicago trauma center prepares corpsmen for the battlefield

A trauma center in Chicago that treats over 6,000 patients every year, many with life-threatening wounds, is about to become a permanent hub for hands-on training for Navy hospital corpsman preparing for combat zones.

The Navy began this pilot program at Stroger Hospital on Chicago’s West Side in 2014, rotating newly enlisted hospital corpsmen and those needing a refresher for six- to eight-week stints.
