Among the symptoms that constitute an acute illness include but are not limited to: * High fever * Nausea and vomiting * Flu symptoms * Skin rash * Insect bites and bee stings * Chest pain Soldiers will be seen for anything that falls under the category of a major illness or injury,. However, when it comes to permanent party and base ops, soldiers are only permitted an initial sick call. Once they have been seen for the acute ailment, follow-up care is not done at MILLS TMC; they must contact TRICARE and the 305th to follow-up. They stabilize the patient and make them comfortable until they can get to their TRICARE provider. They also offer Self Care. Some of the conditions for which Soldiers can check into self-care include: * Minor colds, headaches and coughs * Minor cuts, scrapes and burns * Athlete's foot * Nasal congestion * Menstrual symptoms Make note of certain medical problems for which Soldiers should not attend sick call or self-care. For these problems, mobilizing and demobilizing Soldiers should go to the Soldier Readiness Check (SRC) medical annex, building 5633, on Baltimore Street; permanent party Soldiers should contact their TRICARE health care provider. These non-acute, non-emergency problems include shaving profiles, medical prescription refills, birth control, smoking cessation plans and follow-up blood work.
