INTRODUCTION TO TACTICAL FIRST AID

Instructor: Andrew Snyder, BS, NREMT-P, FP-C

This course goes beyond what is traditionally taught in First Aid courses, and focuses on how to treat life-threatening injuries that are typically encountered by those who carry and use firearms. The course follows the standards of Tactical Combat Casualty Care, which is the training course developed by the military for deploying servicemen and women. This training will better prepare you to treat these injuries should they occur to yourself, a friend, or a loved one.
