Enhanced Tactical Medicine
Course Description: This course is designed to teach Law Enforcement Officers and other first responders how to treat and manage trauma patients in a civilian tactical environment. Utilizing a mix of classroom presentation and hands-on skills training, attendees will learn how to provide life-sustaining treatments in threatening conditions. Instructors will leverage overseas and domestic military experiences in order to illustrate and convey lessons learned in hostile situations. This course requires a 16-hour (2-day) commitment from students and provides more in depth modules and hands-on skills practice than is offered in the Basic Tactical Medicine course. The second day includes evaluated scenarios that require students to practice tactics as well as life-saving treatment for casualties. Upon course completion, students will be able to identify and treat the leading causes of preventable death in a multi-phase tactical environment.
