Defense Medical Readiness Training Institute

The Defense Medical Readiness Training Institute (DMRTI) is a Tri-Service organization staffed by U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Force professionals. DMRTI is located at Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA) Fort Sam Houston, Texas and offers both resident and non-resident joint medical readiness training courses as well as professional medical programs.

DMRTI offers 32 courses in the following focus areas:

  • Trauma Care
  • Burn Care
  • Joint Medical Operations
  • Disaster Preparedness
  • Humanitarian Assistance
  • CBRNE Preparation/Response

Our History

The Joint Medical Readiness Training Center (JMRTC) preceded DMRTI and was responsible for training thousands of medical department officers. However, reengineering JMRTC's medical readiness training efforts with an expanded scope and mission led to the establishment of DMRTI. In July 1997, JMRTC was integrated into DMRTI, forming one organization. DMRTI executes its mission under the direction and guidance of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs Force Health Protection and Readiness (DASD/HA FH&R) and the Force Health Protection Council (FHPC).
