In medical simulation training, the Role 2 Sick Call Screening scenario is designed to sharpen triage, documentation, and evacuation decision-making at a deployed medical treatment facility (MTF). This scenario focuses on Role 2 operations, where a limited surgical capability is available and rapid stabilization of patients is the priority.

Trainees are tasked with receiving multiple sick call patients who arrive by CASEVAC (Casualty Evacuation). These patients may present with anything from minor non-urgent complaints to more serious conditions requiring escalated care. The scenario pushes teams to evaluate symptoms quickly, assign acuity levels, and determine whether the case can be managed in-house or requires transfer to a higher echelon of care—a Role 3 facility, which offers full surgical and specialty services.

Two forms are critical in this scenario: DD Form 1380 (Tactical Combat Casualty Care – TCCC Card) and DD Form 3019 (Field Medical Card). These serve as documentation for clinical assessments, interventions, and evacuation status. Participants must accurately complete these forms under operational constraints and also direct the preparation of evacuation requests when higher-level care is indicated.

Simulation trainers use this scenario to evaluate not only medical decision-making but also inter-team communication, documentation precision, and situational awareness under realistic pressures. It’s especially useful for reinforcing doctrine-driven processes while exposing trainees to the nuances of field-level medicine.

By replicating the procedural tempo and communication challenges of deployed settings, this training ensures that medics and providers are prepared to triage effectively, prioritize limited resources, and coordinate evacuations in alignment with Joint Medical Doctrine.
