The RAMC was formed in 1898 and is the largest corps in the Army Medical Services (AMS). The Corps has a role which ranges from providing immediate first aid emergency care on front line and routine treatment or long term care at health centres and hospitals, as well as health promotion and disease prevention. In the field RAMC surgeons, pharmacists, doctors and medics combine expert medical training with leadership skills to coordinate large-scale trauma situations and humanitarian operations.
