Winter 2011-12 In-Service <strong>Course</strong> Catalog<br />

This 6 hour course serves as an assessment, certification and refresher class for those<br />

currently teaching or who wish to teach Self-Aid/Buddy Aid; Emergency Wound Care at<br />

their department. Having attended a comprehensive basic course is a pre-requisite to attend<br />

this course.<br />

By assessing skills, departments will be assured that their trainers have the knowledge and<br />

confidence to teach emergency medical aid effectively to their own officers. The curriculum<br />

assesses potential elements for a 4 hour block of instruction.<br />

This course assumes that those attending have the medical concepts, equipment, techniques<br />

and knowledge given in an end-user course. While some time will be spent on review,<br />

emphasis will be on assessing, refining and updating those in attendance.<br />

Upon entry into the course, an assessment begins immediately due to the seriousness of the<br />

subject matter. Those failing this initial assessment on wound treatment, airway, bleeding<br />

control, and use of the Israeli bandage and tourniquet will be excused, and will be assisted in<br />

finding the most current end-user class.<br />

Pre-requisites for the course are:<br />

- Candidates must have attended a basic skills course, (through any vendor or through<br />

military training); and<br />

- Pass a practical skills demonstration on wound treatment, airway, bleeding control, Israeli<br />

bandage and tourniquet applications.<br />

At the conclusion of the course, students must pass a true/ false, multiple choices, 30<br />

question exam with a 90% score.<br />

All training is based on the “TC3” model, Tactical Combat Casualty Care, as used by the<br />

U.S. Military.<br />

Items assessed will include the following topics: rapid casualty communications, medical<br />

assessments, use of bandages, tourniquet, Israeli bandage, how to treat for shock, for<br />

bleeding, for airway blockage, and the use of carries and dragging devices.<br />

Officers need to bring the following:<br />

- A current emergency medical kit which includes an Israeli bandage, and<br />

- Duty belt and clothing appropriate for simulated medical applications and tactical<br />

movements.<br />

Demonstration tourniquets will be provided to those departments who currently don’t<br />

employ them.<br />

Instructor assessments will be conducted by this area’s two prominent vendors: Leomedicus<br />

and Protech Corporation.<br />

Note: Those candidates having attended and remembering the skills taught in either of these<br />

high quality end-user courses should be well-prepared to pass this course. Protech<br />

Corporation will assess during this first round of courses.<br />

This course has been submitted for grant funding. If funded, tuitions will be waived.<br />
