Since 2007, agricultural specialists from the National Guard, also known as Agribusiness Development Teams (ADTs), have been working with Afghanistan farmers to help the local population become agriculturally self-sufficient.
ADT members, who have expertise in farming, raising livestock and cultivating natural resources, are accompanied by medics who administer care in the field. These medics are now using MC4.
Today, MC4 fields systems to ADTs and trains their medics on how to digitally notate patient care via MC4. By arming these medics with the tools and skill sets at Fort Hood, Texas, prior to the team's deployment to Afghanistan, we're creating another breed of Army EMR system users on the front lines.
