<p>There is no difference in how casualties are assessed. A full assessment of the
patient is made by the Combat Medical Technician (CMT) attending them, and Joint Service
Publication (JSP) 539 (Heat Illness and Cold Injury: Prevention and Management) contains
guidance on patient assessment and how to provide initial treatment for heat illness.
The contents of JSP 539 are taught on the CMT course.</p><p>JSP 539 is available on
Gov.uk, at the following link:</p><p>www.gov.uk/government/publications/prevention-of-climate-injuries-in-the-armed-forces-medical-policy.</p>
