We have a very short suspense to fill two vacancies, the BLS and ALS representatives, on the DHA Life Support Scientific Advisory Council (LSSAC). This Council is a conduit for Services to bring life support training issues to the DHA via direct communication with the Military Training Network.
This is a Surgeon General appointed position/collateral duty for at least two years. Preferred experience includes being a prior BLS or ALS Program Director with a well-rounded knowledge of life support and American Red Cross training requirements as an instructor.
Candidates should submit a letter of intent, CV, and BIO to Captain Shauna O’Sullivan NLT 1600 EST 28 SEP 2023. This is a collateral duty and does not require PCS.
