00:00.310 --> 00:02.366
My name is Doctor Derek Stahl . Uh ,

00:02.480 --> 00:04.079
job title , I am a clinical

00:04.079 --> 00:06.412
psychologist and I am from Philadelphia ,

00:06.440 --> 00:08.880
Pennsylvania . I have been in the

00:08.880 --> 00:11.119
military for about 4 years come July

00:11.119 --> 00:13.600
here . Coming to mental health , it is

00:13.600 --> 00:15.711
to help you and to help the Air Force

00:15.711 --> 00:17.322
mission . So , as a clinical

00:17.322 --> 00:19.322
psychologist in the military , uh ,

00:19.322 --> 00:21.433
we're part of the operational medical

00:21.433 --> 00:23.544
readiness squadron , and so what that

00:23.544 --> 00:25.711
entails is just like you go to medical

00:25.711 --> 00:27.989
for everything else like readiness and ,

00:27.989 --> 00:30.100
you know , healthcare . Mental health

00:30.100 --> 00:32.322
is a part of readiness as well . What I

00:32.322 --> 00:34.378
like most about this is just working

00:34.378 --> 00:36.489
with the people . Patient care is the

00:36.489 --> 00:36.264
number one thing that I'm concerned

00:36.264 --> 00:39.064
about and so I do right by my patients

00:39.064 --> 00:41.965
before I do meetings or any other thing

00:41.965 --> 00:44.021
that I'm supposed to do because if I

00:44.021 --> 00:46.076
can't help the person in front of me

00:46.076 --> 00:46.724
then I'm not much used to the Air Force .
