Medical Training -
The Royal Centre for Defence Medicine in Birmingham is now the training centre for military nursing, medical and support staff of the tri-service which includes the QARANC (Queen Alexandra's Royal Army Nursing Corps), the PMRAFNS (Princess Mary's Royal Air Force Nursing Service) and the QARNNS (Queen Alexandra's Royal Naval Nursing Service)

Defence School of Health Care Studies
The Royal Defence Medical College moved from Gosport to the University of Birmingham Medical School where it combines civilian and military research, training and education. This includes the Defence School of Health Care Studies for the training and professional development of military nurses. It is now known as the Centre of Defence Medicine - Birmingham (CDM).

In terms of military training -
All new QARANC personnel will receive a 12 week basic military training course at the Army Training Regiment at Winchester Barracks. From here nurses will be promoted to Lance Corporal and receive acting Corporal pay whilst serving at a UK or overseas hospital, field unit or primary care centre.
Officers undergo an 8 week Entry Officers Course at Keogh Barracks, Ash Vale near Aldershot and a four week course at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. From there they are promoted to Lieutenant or Captain, depending on how much nursing experience they have.
Officers and Ordinary Ranks receive military training which includes:
Fitness training
Weapons training
Field first aid
Nuclear biological training
Marching and drill
Fieldcraft
Camouflage techniques
Cooking with rations
Obstacle assault courses
Field exercises
Though the QARANC is classed as a non combatant military role nurses and HCAs are training to handle weapons so that they can disarm the weapons of their patients to ensure the safety within the field hospital.
