Hands on Experience:

You will learn in a hands on manner, how to identify and treat the most common PREVENTABLE causes of death from exteme trauma such as an active killer event. 1) Extremity/Junctional Hemorrhage 2) Tension Pneumothorax 3) Airway obstruction

Likely what you remember from Boy/Girl Scouts or your Red Cross 1st Aid class is very outdated. More then a decade of war-fighting has proven over and over, what works, what doesn’t, what is safe, what is not. Learn how/when to administer self/buddy aid in a hostile environment.

Get hands on practice with both commercial and improvised trauma medical supplies so you know what to buy, what to avoid and what you can do if funds are limited for kits across an entire school, church or business.
