5 NZ Field Ambulance Medical Inspection Room (3 IPP tents) for sick and accidental injuries

For the medical inspection room in Italy either three IPP tents or two adjacent rooms in a building were used, with an examination section separate from the treatment section. The treatment section (or room) was divided into medical and surgical departments. The distribution of the orderlies was as follows: 1 NCO (supervisor); 1 clerk (A & D); 1 medical orderly (medical treatments); 1 instrument orderly (sterilisation of instruments and dressings); 2 surgical orderlies (to do all dressings).
