Provides acute care and outpatient services to the soldiers attending the US Army Ranger School and the cadre members who train them for the 5th Ranger Training Battalion. Ranger school is broken up into three phase. Each phase is approximately 21 days long. The initial phase is in Fort Moore, Georgia. The next phase is here in the mountains of North Georgia at Camp Frank Merrill and is considered the "Mountain Phase". The final phase of Ranger School is in Camp Rudder, Eglin AFB, Florida. TMC #6 supports all operations and provides healthcare to any sick and injured student or instructors (if needed) through on-call medics, 24 hour TMC manning and ambulance coverage at certain events. This coverage is spread across two training sites; the primary site in Dahlonega and a secondary site for mountain climbing specific training in Cleveland Georgia at Yonah Mountain, approximately 40 miles east of Camp Frank Merrill. Routine care and physicals are provided by appointment while acute or emergent care is provided on an open access walk-in basis (TMC #6 does not provide physicals for the cadre on camp the cadre go to their off post providers, the cadre must see their provider for routine care). Emergencies that exceed TMC #6’s capabilities are referred to emergency services at local hospitals (Chestatee Regional Hospital and Northeast Georgia Medical Center) on a “case by case” basis.
