New Course!
This 6 hour course serves as an assessment, certification and refresher class for those
currently teaching or who wish to teach Self-Aid/Buddy Aid; Emergency Wound Care at
their department. Having attended a comprehensive basic course is a pre-requisite to attend
this course.
By assessing skills, departments will be assured that their trainers have the knowledge and
confidence to teach emergency medical aid effectively to their own officers. The curriculum
assesses potential elements for a 4 hour block of instruction.
This course assumes that those attending have the medical concepts, equipment, techniques
and knowledge given in an end-user course. While some time will be spent on review,
emphasis will be on assessing, refining and updating those in attendance.
Upon entry into the course, an assessment begins immediately due to the seriousness of the
subject matter. Those failing this initial assessment on wound treatment, airway, bleeding
control, and use of the Israeli bandage and tourniquet will be excused and will be assisted in
finding the most current end-user class.
Pre-requisites for the course are:
- Candidates must have attended a basic skills course, (through any vendor or through
military training); and
- Pass a practical skills demonstration on wound treatment, airway, bleeding control, Israeli
bandage and tourniquet applications.
At the conclusion of the course, students must pass a true/ false, multiple choices, 30
question exam with a 90% score.
All training is based on the “TC3” model, Tactical Combat Casualty Care, as used by the
U.S. Military.
Items assessed will include the following topics: rapid casualty communications, medical
assessments, use of bandages, tourniquet, Israeli bandage, how to treat for shock, for
bleeding, for airway blockage, and the use of carries and dragging devices.
Officers need to bring the following:
- A current emergency medical kit which includes an Israeli bandage, and
- Duty belt and clothing appropriate for simulated medical applications and tactical
movements.
Demonstration tourniquets will be provided to those departments who currently don’t
employ them.
Instructor assessments will be conducted by this area’s two prominent vendors: Leomedicus
and Protech Corporation.
Note: Those candidates having attended and remembering the skills taught in either of these
high quality end-user courses should be well-prepared to pass this course. Protech
Corporation will assess during this first round of courses.
This course has been submitted for grant funding. If funded, tuitions will be waived.
