00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,667
(inspirational piano music)

2
00:00:21,410 --> 00:00:23,600
- [Dominic] I never would
have assumed that the military

3
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:25,290
would have brought me to places like this

4
00:00:25,290 --> 00:00:26,910
or experiences like this.

5
00:00:26,910 --> 00:00:30,340
It wasn't something I anticipated
when I joined the service.

6
00:00:30,340 --> 00:00:33,940
- For our medics, and
nurses, and providers,

7
00:00:33,940 --> 00:00:38,330
a lot of them haven't seen
the extremes of diseases,

8
00:00:38,330 --> 00:00:40,655
and so for that, it's very rewarding

9
00:00:40,655 --> 00:00:43,270
and valuable for our team members.

10
00:00:43,270 --> 00:00:44,410
- We're taking care of patients,

11
00:00:44,410 --> 00:00:48,320
anywhere from 500 to
1,000 encounters a day,

12
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,810
and typically back home we don't see that.

13
00:00:51,810 --> 00:00:53,723
Our medics are not seeing that.

14
00:00:55,570 --> 00:00:57,610
- Everybody's so happy to be here

15
00:00:57,610 --> 00:01:02,430
and whether we all work long
hours or see 100,000 patients,

16
00:01:02,430 --> 00:01:03,410
it doesn't matter to everybody.

17
00:01:03,410 --> 00:01:05,340
We treat each patient individually

18
00:01:05,340 --> 00:01:07,833
and it's a new encounter every time.

19
00:01:09,660 --> 00:01:12,620
- The experience has been very rewarding,

20
00:01:12,620 --> 00:01:14,860
not just because you get to help folks,

21
00:01:14,860 --> 00:01:18,820
but also because it gives
you experience to be able

22
00:01:18,820 --> 00:01:21,600
to manage some things
like this in the future.

23
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,670
The practice made me wanna do

24
00:01:22,670 --> 00:01:25,579
as many of these as I possibly can.

25
00:01:25,579 --> 00:01:26,990
- [Dentist] A school--

26
00:01:26,990 --> 00:01:28,730
- [Dominic] To my colleagues back home--

27
00:01:28,730 --> 00:01:29,563
- What can you read?
- [Dominic] Whether they be

28
00:01:29,563 --> 00:01:33,060
airmen, soldiers, Marines, sailors,

29
00:01:33,060 --> 00:01:34,290
if you can find missions like this,

30
00:01:34,290 --> 00:01:36,733
I would highly encourage
you to give it a shot.

31
00:01:38,300 --> 00:01:41,820
- Each day, our team members have wanted

32
00:01:41,820 --> 00:01:43,760
to see as many patients,

33
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:45,093
to work one more in,

34
00:01:45,093 --> 00:01:46,900
to help one more family,

35
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:48,400
help one more kid.

36
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,400
That to me has just been rewarding,

37
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,737
to see our folks step
up and want to do more

38
00:01:53,737 --> 00:01:55,837
and see more every single day.
