  of having infectious diseases such as tuberculosis should be separated from other detainees. Guards and
  other personnel who come into contact with such patients should be informed about their health risks and
  how to mitigate those risks.
  3-49. Releasable medical information on internees includes that which is necessary to supervise the general
  state of health, nutrition, and cleanliness of internees and to detect contagious diseases. Such information
  should be used to provide health care; to ensure health and safety of internees, soldiers, employees, or others
  at the facility; to ensure law enforcement on the premises; and to ensure the administration and maintenance
  of the safety, security, and good order of the facility.
  3-50. For additional information on medical ethics refer to the Textbooks of Military Medicine: Military
  Medical Ethics, Volumes I and II, and The Emergency War Surgery Handbook. Both of these publications
  are available electronically at the Borden Institute website.
  3-51. The provision of health care to detainees within MTFs or other facilities (such as dispensaries located
  within detention or holding facilities) is a unique role within the military structure. This role is governed by
  rules and regulations designed to ensure the provision of health care while ensuring personal safety and
  maintenance of security, custody, and discipline in a detention/holding facility environment. Health care
  personnel must ensure that their actions, both on- and off-duty, do not undermine their ability to function
  effectively among detainees or compromise established health care, safety, security, and custody guidelines.
  Note. The process of abiding by the principles of ethical treatment of personnel regardless of
  national/adversarial affiliation and navigating rules regarding employment of weapon systems,
  markings, and duties, can be challenging. Units are strongly encouraged to consult with their
  servicing Staff Judge Advocate and Unit Ministry Team for advisement.
