An insight into the further development and the associated increase in the operational readiness of the MMCCMultinational Medical Coordination Centre/EMCEuropean Medical Command in recent months, rounded off the presentation of the tasks of the Koblenz entity. "The joint future projects and the mutual support open up completely new possibilities," summarised Surgeon General Dr. Stefan Kowitz. Both the CIOMRConfédération Interalliée des Officiers Médicaux de Réserve delegation and the MMCCMultinational Medical Coordination Centre/EMCEuropean Medical Command representatives agreed on the great importance of international reserve officers as contact persons, experts and simultaneous links for both sides.
Access to new medical expertise is an important mosaic in the overall concept
With the Confédération Interalliée des Officiers Médicaux de Réserve (Interallied Confederation of Medical Reserve Officers - CIOMRConfédération Interalliée des Officiers Médicaux de Réserve), founded in 1948, the MMCCMultinational Medical Coordination Centre/EMCEuropean Medical Command now has access to the medical expertise of doctors, dentists, pharmacists, veterinarians, nurses, technicians and officers of the medical service of almost all NATONorth Atlantic Treaty Organization countries and other member nations, such as Austria, South Africa, Singapore or Switzerland.
"We are very happy about this new, strong connection between these two organizations, on which we will continue to build our future cooperation", the Director of the MMCCMultinational Medical Coordination Centre/EMCEuropean Medical Command, Surgeon General Dr. Stefan Kowitz, is looking forward to the new cooperation.
The focus will be on the future support of the MMCCMultinational Medical Coordination Centre/EMCEuropean Medical Command in the participation of multinational exercises and conferences and the planning and coordination of projects. In return, the MMCCMultinational Medical Coordination Centre/EMCEuropean Medical Command, as a hub for medical expertise and coordination competence for multinational and civil-military approaches, will provide the platform for reserve services at the multinational level.
