Police officers are usually the 1st of the 1st responders to arrive on the scene of an emergency. They are often the 1st victims of assault. Rescue operations must balance the medicine with the tactics to safely operate in the Care Under Threat Phase of Operations. There are unique topics such as the management of Acute Behavioral Emergencies, rapid evaluation & preservation of forensic evidence which will be covered, in addition to more routine emergencies.
These unique topics are not typically taught to civilian EMS providers with whom close on scene collaboration is required. These tasks must be accomplished in challenging, austere, and sometimes hostile environments.
This 2-day class is designed to build skills that reflect contemporary casualty care. Although the main audience is peace officers; unique rescue operations for rescue task force operations are included for fire/EMS and hospital personnel as well.
Training is intended for Peace Officers, Law Enforcement Officers, Detectives, Supervisors, and Patrol Officers. A TCOLE number is required for TCOLE credit.
No civilians are allowed.
