The Medical Corps is the support service responsible for providing continuous medical support to the forces of the MNDF. In order to support the forces in carrying out their duties, the Medical Corps employs both military and civilian personnel to staff military hospitals, to operate medical clinics in military establishments, and to provide medical support to deployed forces. Furthermore, the Medical Corps conducts various programs and activities such as medical camps and health screening programs targeted at the MNDF’s families and to the civil community.

 

The Medical Corps carries out its main responsibilities by providing medical support to the geographic Area Commands of the MNDF. This is achieved by incorporating elements from the Medical Corps in the service support components established at the Area Commands. However, some essential services are provided centrally as direct responsibilities of the Medical Corps Headquarters.
