Redstone Arsenal’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is one of the components of the Army Substance Abuse Program. However, the EAP assists employees, family members and family members of active duty military to resolve all types of “problems in living.” The issues addressed need not be substance abuse or workplace related. Stress, anxiety, conflict, relationship, parent-child, financial, and all types of personal and workplace issues can be addressed. Information and communication between an employee and the EAP is strictly confidential under federal law and Army Regulation 600-85. An employee or family member does not have to be referred to the EAP. Just call for a confidential appointment.

Fox Army Health Center (FAHC) provides access to quality and cost-effective primary care for patients while maintaining a state of readiness for mobilization. The mission of the health center is “Provide responsive, innovative and reliable health services, influencing health to improve readiness, save lives and advance wellness in support of the force, military Families, and all those entrusted to our care.” It is striving to become the premier model of organizational and beneficiary wellness through the Army’s medical community. FAHC’s Patient Centered Medical Home is comprised of three teams, Blue Team, Red Team and White Team. The mission of the FAHC Blue Team is to optimize the health, well-being, and medical readiness of Soldiers. They accomplish this through our dedicated approach to Warfighter Medicine, and provide physical exams, medical readiness and deployment screenings in support of the military’s wartime mission. The Red & White Team provides comprehensive medical care to the beneficiaries of FAHC, and offers a range of services including adult and family medicine as well as pediatrics and minor outpatient procedures. All TRICARE Prime patients enrolled to FAHC and assigned to this clinic will have a Primary Care Manager (PCM). TRICARE Prime patients will coordinate specialty care through their PCM, thereby ensuring continuity, timeliness and appropriateness of referrals. The Advice Nurse system is available after normal business hours. In addition to an extremely busy outpatient pharmacy service, FAHC provides laboratory and radiological service. The Behavior Health Division provides mental health treatment. The Wellness Center’s functions are to provide patient and community health education and promotions, environmental health activities, and surveillance of communicable diseases.

The AMC and Redstone Arsenal Inspector General (IG) extend the eyes, ears, voice and conscience of the Commander. The IG is fair and impartial; anyone can talk to the IG. The IG team is the objective fact-finder for the Commander, and will accept anonymous and confidential complaints. Assistance is provided to all Soldiers, family members, civilians and other personnel requesting assistance in matters of interest to AMC and Redstone Arsenal. Occasionally, requests for assistance will contain allegations, which may cause the IG to open an informal inquiry, formal investigation, or advise the command to initiate an inquiry or investigation. Conclusions are reached based on a preponderance of credible evidence. Any inspection or investigation conducted by an IG or IG team is considered an IG record, and cannot be used as the basis for adverse action against any individual without the written approval of the Inspector General of the Army. IG records will not be converted for personal use.
