Force Health Protection

Force Health Protection (FHP) in military and operational medicine refers to a comprehensive strategy aimed at safeguarding the health and well-being of military personnel before, during, and after deployments. It encompasses preventive measures such as vaccinations, health education, mental health support, and the management of environmental hazards. FHP seeks to enhance the readiness and resilience of service members, ensuring they are healthy and capable of performing their duties effectively. By prioritizing preventive care and health maintenance, FHP ultimately aims to reduce the impact of injuries and illnesses on military operations.
