Deployment Readiness Education for Service Women 

The (Deployment Readiness Education for Service Women) DRES App includes information on healthy practices and available resources to support service women’s healthcare needs and challenges before and during deployment.

Once the App is downloaded, service women do not need WiFi to access the content. For easy navigation, patients can search the topic they’re interested in or click on a topic in the table of contents to go directly to that section.

The DRES content was written by Military Medical providers across the Military Health System to provide easily accessible, comprehensive, and unbiased health education to service women across the force.

The app can be downloaded at https://mobile.health.mil/Dres.
