Mentoring

Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

Minnesota’s DMAT Team One is in Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria where they’re teamed up with the Army Reserve Medical Command. Larry Himebaugh is working as an administrator for the Minnesota team and he talks about their role in providing care.
Whether they are responding to a hurricane, flood or other natural disaster; protecting health and saving lives is their mission. DMAT members provide care that matters, and working with the military is a natural fit. Mr Himebaugh explains how they work well together. More
