Course Content
This is not a basic first aid course and we will not spend the day watching videos and rolling bandages! it is not our intent to cover every possible illness or injury. We will address how to recognize and immediately treat common traumatic wounds and medical emergencies in the minutes before advanced life support arrives or in the event that additional help will not be available for some time. CPR is an important and valid skill but due to time constraints it is not included in this day of training.
Accreditation
No prior medical training is necessary to participate. If you are a licensed EMT or paramedic, CME units are provided. Tactical Training Specialties is an accredited training entity with the Missouri Bureau of Emergency Medical Services.

Don McGee –
I took this class a few months ago and found I’ve referred back to it when taking other first-aid courses. A lot of information but easy to absorb and maintain. Todd makes every class not only safe, but places weight on hands-on, practical exercises.
I recommend this class to everyone, you never know when you may need a tourniquet, wound-packing, and/or the ability to find trauma wounds in a bad situation.
