Dragon Medic Experience: 81st MDG leadership engages with medics to improve patient care

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgts. Ashley Dena and Hannah Naylor, 81st Aerospace Medicine Squadron medical technicians, brief Col. Beatrice Dolihite, 81st Medical Group commander, on the medical clearance process at the Base Operation Medicine Cell inside the Keesler Medical Center at Keesler Air Force Base, Mississippi, Aug. 22, 2019. The "Dragon Medic Experience" allowed the 81st MDG leadership to work side-by-side with group medics in order to understand the challenges and barriers they may face while providing care. It also allowed them to see first-hand the great ideas that the staff has implemented to focus on the patient experience. This experience helps us cultivate an environment where senior leadership has direct engagement and connection with our front line medics who strive to deliver outstanding care.
