ROTA, Spain- Participants practice suturing techniques to enhance readiness capabilities in operational settings. Hospitalman Madison Sweeney, a Multi Service Ward Corpsman, practices the skill, approximating wound edges to promote an optimal setting for wound healing. This critical skill helps to speed healing, stop bleeding, reduce scarring, and decrease the risk of infection. This training is a part of Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command’s (NMRTC) Rota quarterly readiness training program focused on enhancing clinical readiness skills, at times outside of their specialization, to better prepare them for various situations in both traditional and operational settings.
