The future of military medicine is here.

Martin Army Community Hospital welcomed six new resident physicians into its Graduate Medical Education Program during a swearing-in ceremony.

Each year, graduating medical students across the nation participate in "The Match," a highly competitive process that pairs future physicians with residency programs where they will complete their specialized training. For these six physicians, that journey begins at MACH.

Over the next three years, they will train alongside experienced military and civilian providers, care for Soldiers, families and retirees, and develop the skills needed to become the next generation of Army medical leaders.

Please join us in giving our newest doctors a warm Martin Army Community Hospital welcome as they begin this exciting chapter of service, learning and leadership.

As the weather warms up, families are spending more time outside enjoying parks, trails, sports, and backyard fun. But ticks are active this time of year, and a quick check after outdoor activities can help keep your family safe.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), you can reduce the risk of tick bites by:

• Checking children, pets, and yourself for ticks after being outdoors
• Showering soon after coming inside
• Changing clothes and placing worn clothing in the dryer on high heat
• Using EPA-registered insect repellents
• Keeping pets protected with veterinarian-approved tick prevention

Ticks can carry illnesses such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Early symptoms may include fever, fatigue, headache, rash, or muscle aches.

At Martin Army Community Hospital, we are here to support Soldiers, families, and our retirees all summer long. If you have questions about tick bites, symptoms, or prevention, talk with your healthcare team.

Stay safe. Stay prepared. And don’t let a tick make you sick.
