Seeking Volunteers for Deployment Related Research Survey
Title: “Assessing the Efficacy of Pre-Deployment Training in the Development and Sustainment of Operationally-Relevant Medical Skills – A Survey Study”
Who: Military Medical Personnel who have deployed and may or may not have completed a humanitarian mission prior to deployment
What: Survey study to collect information on clinician perceived pre-deployment training gaps
When: Participate now by clicking this link: https://go.intelink.gov/DM1s7oY
Why: The goal of this study is to obtain military medical provider experiences that can describe perceived weaknesses in pre-deployment clinical practice (to include both training and direct patient care) to develop potential deployment preparedness gaps that can improve overall military medical readiness.
* Aim 1 Address the difference in perceived preparedness for combat deployments between emergency/critical care and non-emergency/critical care clinicians.
* Aim 2 Examine the impact of serving humanitarian missions on operational readiness and sustainment of combat medical skills.
Costs, Risks, and Benefits of Participation: There are no costs or compensation associated with this study. This survey should take about 10-15 minutes of your time. Participation is voluntary and you may skip questions or withdraw participation at any time during the survey. Information collected is anonymous, so there are minimal risks associated with participating. Participation in this research is not guaranteed to benefit you personally. However, the information we gather from your participation in this survey may help improve pre-deployment training, which will improve both patient outcomes and the deployment experience of you and your fellow service members.

RMKS/1. Per references (a) through (f) each Service Member is required to
maintain their medical readiness requirements, including the completion of
the Periodic Health Assessment (PHA), Pre-Deployment Health Assessment, Post
-Deployment Health Assessment, Post-Deployment Health Re-Assessment, and
Mental Health Assessment.
2. The electronic Periodic Health Assessment (ePHA) and electronic
Deployment Health Assessment (eDHA) websites have been consolidated into a
single Common Access Card (CAC)-enabled website called the electronic Health
Assessment (eHA) site, located at https://eha.health.mil/eha. The eHA
website was established in August 2021. On 1 October 2022 the legacy ePHA
and eDHA websites were taken offline and are no longer accessible.
Consolidation to a single CAC-enabled platform improves Service Member access
and completion of medical readiness requirements and enables Navy Medicine to
implement electronic versions of other, currently paper-based medical
readiness assessments.
3. Medical readiness assessment questions are defined by Department of
Defense (DoD) requirements and cannot be changed without DoD approval. Both
Part I and Part II of the medical readiness assessment must be complete so
that Service Member's eHA can be certified.
a. Part I: In order to complete this part of any eHA assessment,
Sailors must log in to the new eHA website using their Common Access
Card. Service Members enter their information by selecting Start New
Assessment for the assessment(s) for which they are due or overdue. PHAs are
listed under the ePHA portal, and the deployment-related health assessments
are under the eDHA portal.
b. Part II: Upon completion of the Service Member's portion of an
assessment on the eHA website, Service Members must contact their medical
department or identified point of contact to schedule the record review and
Provider portion of the assessment.
4. User feedback/user experience about eHA website functionality can be
submitted to usn.hampton-roads.navmcpubhlthcenpors.list.nmcphc-pha1
@health.mil. User recommendations for U.S. Navy Bureau of Medicine and
Surgery eHA website development can be submitted to
usn.ncr.bumedfchva.list.m34 @health.mil.
5. This ALNAV remains in effect until superseded or cancelled, whichever
comes first.
