In an army camp patients in need of psychiatric treatment are sent to the Forward Medical Co. They will be seen for screening and decision on psychiatric treatment. In the Rear Unit patient who require more than a few days prior to return to duty are treated.

In the admission-tent all patients are evaluated for admission, evaluation and sorting. Various cases are portrayed, showing the need of separating severe cases form other psychiatric patients, the possibility of quick recovery even after severe experiences but also the need to observe the patient’s reactions. Rest and sleep are important for therapy of the early cases in critical conditions. This is why the therapist visits the patient at night to care for patients with anxieties.
