I Am Navy Medicine – Michael J. Pearson – 42 years of Service Before Self

Safety oversight the steady standard…For 22 years, Michael J. Pearson, in his assigned duty as Naval Hospital Bremerton as Safety and Occupational Health Manager, has overseen a host of duties – such as safety inspections, data collection and analysis and fire prevention – to maintain patient, as well as staff, safety needs. He consistently ensured NHB staff are trained to recognize potential physical hazards and has also managed staff activities to reduce the risk of mishaps. His responsibilities for the military treatment facility have included such routine obligations as prevention and control of workplace hazards, mishap investigation and reporting, and interim life safety measures (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).
