Abstract:
Many challenges face the pharmacist in a combat zone hospital. The 13th Evacuation Hospital, Wisconsin Army National Guard was deployed in support of Operation Desert Storm. Its mission before and during the ground campaign identified key areas where pharmacy involvement assisted in the provision of care. Special skills and subject areas were determined. This article reviews the authors' experiences and offers suggestions to aid pharmacy personnel in preparation for future deployment.
