CG Auxiliary Health Care
Auxiliary health care professionals include Physicians (MD, DO), Dentists
(DDS, DMD), Physician Assistants (PA), Nurse Practitioners (NP), and
Pharmacists. These primary care medical and dental professionals are
eligible to volunteer in Coast Guard clinics where the Coast Guard is
already providing a similar level of healthcare and within guidelines and
restrictions established by COMDTINST M6010.2 (series). This instruction
does not apply to other categories of health care providers (e.g.,
Registered Nurses (RN), emergency medical services providers (e.g., EMTs,
Paramedics, First Responders, etc.). However, Auxiliary members possessing
these allied health care skills may volunteer to work in Coast Guard health
care facilities in accordance with COMDTINST M6000.1 (series).
