Els discharge in 2002 with negative consequences

Is it normal for the sick call clinic for trainees at ft sill to reset dislocated shoulders? Or is it standard operation procedure to call the emergency medical response?

I am far from a doctor, but unless this was a combat situation it should be done by a doctor.  Again that is just my two cents

"Somebody" made a decision to call a doctor.  I dont know who you saw that did that, but its all a judgement call.  the people who treated you probably felt this was "out of their league" and called a doctor.  Its almost always better to call, than to not call the doc.  For one thing, a doctor can order xrays, and most of those techs cant.

A TRAINEE IS NOT ALLOWED TO DO ANY TYPE OF MEDICAL PROCEDURE  THAT HAS  TO COME FROM A QUALILFIED     Dr.

As bad as they hurt I would not let a trainee put it back in place  they could break your back or arm or something worse.

Yikes, I could feel that all the way over here. I hope you have service treatment records noting what happened.

I'm with Buck, tough it out and wait for someone more qualified.
