An overall review of the impact that Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) has had on the city of Savannah, Georgia that includes the final numbers of patients seen, services rendered and total value/impact on the community.
Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) is a U.S. military training opportunity that provides real-life deployment training and readiness for military personnel while addressing public and civil-society needs. The military services have always brought to bear their resources to help meet some of the country’s civil needs. With IRT, the Department of Defense realizes simultaneous benefits from military training and readiness while providing quality services to communities through the U.S.
Savannah was selected as the flagship site for the Department of Defense’s 2018 Innovative Readiness Training Program after SJ/C and Georgia Southern submitted a proposal to host it. Dubbed Operation Empower Health – Greater Savannah, the training will have troops from every branch of the military in town to provide medical, dental, vision and veterinary services for more than 6,000 people. The services will be provided for those 18-years-old and older at various locations in Chatham County from May 10-18.
