Navy Embedding Mental Health Teams with Submarine Squadrons
The San Diego Union-Tribune 17 May 2018 By Carl Prine
Commanders are calling it the "year of change" for Navy medicine but Rear Adm. Paul D. Pearigen is excited about what the reforms promise, especially for submariners.
The commander of San Diego-based Navy Medicine West, a health network that's concentrated in the Pacific Rim but extends globally from Peru to Egypt and Vietnam, Pearigen sees 2018 as a transition from the way the armed forces traditionally treated patients to one based more on hiking readiness in deploying units and ships.
