00:07.540 --> 00:09.920
stay resilient . That's the motto . At

00:09.920 --> 00:12.070
the resiliency center here on forward

00:12.080 --> 00:14.380
operating base or fob possibly

00:14.380 --> 00:16.440
Afghanistan . The army medical

00:16.440 --> 00:18.440
professionals working in the centre

00:18.440 --> 00:20.780
aimed to identify assess and treat

00:20.780 --> 00:23.200
soldiers having difficulty adapting to

00:23.200 --> 00:25.590
being deployed in a combat area and

00:25.590 --> 00:27.923
recovering from combat related injuries .

00:28.040 --> 00:29.929
The different sections within the

00:29.929 --> 00:32.040
center make a collaborative effort to

00:32.040 --> 00:34.151
provide the best care possible . This

00:34.151 --> 00:36.151
is kind of a four tier program . We

00:36.151 --> 00:38.151
have behavior health here , we have

00:38.151 --> 00:40.207
combat stress control here , We have

00:40.207 --> 00:42.429
resiliency training and also we have we

00:42.429 --> 00:44.484
identify what problems that soldiers

00:44.484 --> 00:46.720
happen . Problems range from sleep

00:46.720 --> 00:48.831
deprivation to dealing with issues on

00:48.831 --> 00:50.942
the home front . But in an aggressive

00:50.942 --> 00:52.998
approach is taken to ensure soldiers

00:52.998 --> 00:55.220
are fit for duty . We're always out and

00:55.220 --> 00:57.387
about talking with commanders . Once a

00:57.387 --> 00:59.387
soldier arrives here , we develop a

00:59.387 --> 01:01.498
therapeutic treatment plan being that

01:01.498 --> 01:03.720
it is in theater , it's more of a brief

01:03.720 --> 01:05.720
intervention than long term therapy

01:05.740 --> 01:07.851
because the ultimate goal for us here

01:07.851 --> 01:10.720
is to identify treat and ultimately

01:10.720 --> 01:13.090
returned the soldier to duty having

01:13.090 --> 01:16.670
behavior health in theater . Uh there's

01:16.670 --> 01:18.930
a combat multiply Staff sergeant

01:18.930 --> 01:20.930
Crittenden , N . C . I . C . Of the

01:20.930 --> 01:23.210
concussion care center says that before

01:23.210 --> 01:25.580
being deemed fit for duty , multiple

01:25.580 --> 01:27.580
assessments must be completed after

01:27.580 --> 01:29.910
their symptom free . Then we start

01:29.920 --> 01:32.200
their assessment to include the NM

01:32.200 --> 01:34.920
assessment . The best assessment and

01:34.920 --> 01:38.230
then the the O . I . C . Will have

01:38.230 --> 01:41.330
other questions and assessments to go

01:41.330 --> 01:43.497
through with them as well . Oh , I see

01:43.497 --> 01:45.441
of combat and operational stress .

01:45.441 --> 01:47.870
Major Raul Diaz warns that soldiers

01:47.870 --> 01:50.070
experiencing emotional stress should

01:50.070 --> 01:52.237
not be treated differently . Let's not

01:52.237 --> 01:55.360
treat our soldiers who are having often

01:55.440 --> 01:58.300
2nd and 3rd and 4th and 5th dip lawyers

01:58.540 --> 02:00.900
who are having emotional scars and

02:00.900 --> 02:03.011
reactions . Let's not treat them like

02:03.011 --> 02:04.780
that . Let's let them get the

02:04.780 --> 02:07.910
assistance before it gets worse and

02:07.920 --> 02:10.430
interferes with their health reporting

02:10.430 --> 02:13.030
from fob Kasab . I'm Army Sergeant
