I have been contacted about providing additional trauma-specific training, more in-depth than a cursory overview, but not quite TCCC/medic training. I have thought about a class with the following elements (catchy name in the works). It would be a full weekend; or, I could pare it down for a day. Not sure about cost, likely $100-$130/day or $200-$250/weekend. I could travel to another location or do it local (Durham).
Mull it over, if it is something you would be interested in, let me know. If there is enough interest I will start putting the program together.
Full weekend:
Physiological/psychological reactions to stress
The importance of having the proper mindset
Basic anatomy and physiology of life-sustaining systems
H, A, B, C’s—Hemorrhage, Airway, Breathing and Circulation
Breakdown and usage of Individual Med Kit components
Hands-on application of the IMK
Basic and advanced airway management -treating and monitoring tension pneumothorax, sucking chest wound and flail chest
Airway adjunct device placement-nasopharyngeal Airway
Basic first aid and advanced wound care
Application of bandages and hemostatic agents
Application of tourniquets
Recognition and treatment of various injuries (Gunshot, Laceration, Burn, Airway, Head, Orthopedic, Environmental)
Recognition and treatment of hypovolemic (hemorrhagic) shock
Moving and positioning victims with various injuries
Response to active shooter situation
Proper use of cover and cover vs. concealment
Casualty recovery in an active shooter situation
Mass casualty triage procedure
Hardware/Kit
Single day:
