What happens if a member does not meet medical standards for deployment?

When a member does not meet medical standards for deployment, assigning them to a different role is a valid approach, as it allows the military to effectively utilize their skills while ensuring the safety and readiness of the overall force. This reassignment can help ensure that the individual contributes in a capacity that does not conflict with their medical limitations, thus maintaining operational effectiveness without compromising the health of the service member.

In certain situations, individuals may receive training or be placed in positions that fit their abilities, thereby allowing them to continue serving and contributing to their unit without being deployed. This flexibility is essential in managing personnel resources effectively while caring for the health of service members.
