United States citizenship or equivalent status as allowed by policy; high school diploma or equivalent; at least 17 years of age; interest in healthcare and willingness to work in clinical and field environments, potentially under stressful conditions; ability to meet medical, vision, and physical fitness standards required for medical and operational assignments.

Specific options depend on the Sailors status, training, and current Navy policy.

Pay, Benefits & Service
Pay, benefits, and service commitments follow standard Navy Active and/or Reserve policies for this type of role, including basic pay, allowances when eligible, health coverage, and retirement options. Exact entitlements, special pays, and service obligations depend on program, component, years of service, and current law and Navy guidance.
