SUMMARY:TECC- Tactical Emergency Casualty Care
DESCRIPTION:The Committee for Tactical Emergency Casualty Care used the military battlefield guidelines of Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) as an evidenced based starting point in the development of civilian specific medical guidelines for high threat operations. Each phase and medical recommendation of the military TCCC guidelines was examined and discussed by the Committee\, and then was re-written\, annotated\, or removed through consensus voting of the Guidelines Committee to create civilian specific\, civilian appropriate guidance. Additionally\, the Committee added and/or put specific emphasis on several medical recommendations not included in TCCC to address high threat operational aspects unique to civilian operations. \nActive Bystander – Empowered community members\, who are present in the event but not so severely injured that they cannot assist others\, can serve a critical role during the initial moments after complex and dynamic disasters. They must have immediate access to severely injured victims and can provide time-sensitive\, life-saving interventions; they are the first link in the trauma chain of survival. \nCourse Content– \n\nSafety\nCommunication\nAssessment\nTreatment of traumatic injuries including gunshot wounds\, stabbings\, and blast injuries.\nOngoing care and management of patients.\nGear selection

SUMMARY:Everyone Has A Plan- Force on Force
DESCRIPTION:Everyone has a plan \nEveryone Has a Plan is a next steps force on force class designed for people that have a moderate level of gun handling and concealed carry experience.  The course is an eight hour scenario based program that builds the decision making process of the student through exposure to problems presented by our instructors and role players. This class is not focused on shooting skills\, but the more important skills of awareness of your surroundings and decision making.  Scenarios will present the student with opportunities to refine their decision making skills before\, during\, and after a violent encounter involving a firearm. \nStudents will go through at least five instructor led scenarios that will layer in more complicated choices and problems than our So You Think You Can Carry course. The scenarios are all based on real world events and the student will be equipped with an Airsoft pistol that is gas powered and fires a non-lethal 6mm plastic projectile. The use of Non-lethal Training Ammunition (NLTA) allows for realistic presentation of gunfire in a safe environment. All force on force equipment is provided by our instructors in the class. There will be discussions after each scenario in both individual and group settings to further explore the decisions made by each student as well as self defense law\, medical response\, and post incident response procedures. \nIn order to maintain a safe training environment\, no real weapons (guns\, knives\, pepper spray\, impact weapons\, or ammunition) will be allowed into the training environment. All students will be subject to inspection of their person and any bags or containers they bring with them to the class.  Flashlights that do not have sharp edges or impact bezels will be allowed in class and are encouraged.  Students will be required to have a long sleeved shirt and long pants for safety.  Gloves and neck protection are optional but recommended.  Face and eye protection are provided by us but students can use their own protective equipment pending inspection by the instructors.  There will be no meal break during the class so students are encouraged to bring their own food and drinks.  Snacks\, coffee\, and water will be available to the students throughout the day. \nThe size of the class is limited to 10 students to ensure everyone gets quality instruction and feedback.  Proof of prior force on force or a 16 hour fighting pistol class is required to attend the class and will be requested by our staff upon enrollment and payment.  We reserve  the right to cancel enrollment and refund payment if we feel the student does not have the requisite training skills or proof of training in order to ensure a good learning experience for the class. This is a hosted class. \n
