Can Doctors Get DRAFTED Into the Military?

Описание: Russia has invaded Ukraine and many people - including doctors and other healthcare workers - are worried about the possibility of a draft should things escalate to a global scale. If you’re a nurse, resident, doctor, or another healthcare worker, should you be worried? How likely is a medical draft? And if one were to occur, what would it look like?

Most people have heard of the Selective Services System and know that young men in the United States, age 18 to 25, are required to sign up. What many people aren’t aware of, however, is that the US has standby plans developed by the Selective Service System to draft doctors, nurses, and other medical technicians into the military in the event of a national crisis. It is called the Health Care Personnel Delivery System, or HCPDS for short.

We'll cover everything you need to know about the HCPDS as well as how likely a medical draft is to occur in the US. Make sure you stick around to the end because we'll also cover the likelihood of a medical draft in other countries including the UK, Canada, and India.
