Bridging Forces: Military-Civilian Partnership Portal

Join the Mission to Enhance Combat Casualty Care Readiness

The Military Health System Strategic Partnership American College of Surgeons (MHSSPACS) seeks to connect military and civilian healthcare organizations to foster collaborative trauma partnerships through the Bridging Forces portal. Our platform is designed to enhance trauma care readiness, streamline training opportunities, and build lasting military-civilian partnerships (MCPs). Join us in advancing trauma response capabilities, sharing expertise, and developing new training opportunities that benefit both military personnel and civilian healthcare providers.

With the mission to ensure readiness for combat casualty care, our Bridging Forces portal is designed to:

• Educate both military and civilian parties on MCPs
• Encourage the development of new military-civilian training partnerships to support innovation
• Share best practices
• Build a comprehensive approach to trauma care

Through this effort, we are committed to support partnerships to prepare healthcare teams to deliver the highest quality care in the most critical moments, ultimately improving outcomes for trauma patients at home and on the battlefield.
