Devising a training programme and reviewing the lessons identified during contingency operations on board the Role 3 Maritime platform.

摘要

The deployment of the Primary Casualty Receiving Facility (PCRF) to Sierra Leone in October 2014 in support of Operation GRITROCK was a contingency operation that required a very specific training programme. This article discusses the training and how it evolved beyond its original remit into a programme used as a management tool to meet the needs of the staff. The result was the implementation of a comprehensive package from which lessons can be drawn and used when planning future operations.
