Tactical Emergency Casualty Care - TECC (NAEMT)

Instructional Hours: 16.00

Course Objective: To provide students with the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to respond to a mass casualty or active shooter event.

Course Description: This course covers topics designed to decrease preventable death in the tactical situation. Major topics covered include hemorrhage control; surgical airway control and needle decompression; strategies for treating wounded responders in threatening environments; caring for pediatric patients; and techniques for dragging and carrying victims to safety. Methods of instruction include lecture, discussion and team-focused practical exercises.

Successful Completion: Students must attend all class sessions, demonstrate proficiency in the four evaluation stations, and obtain a minimum score of 76% on the written examination. Successful completion of the course provides certification in TECC. Completion does NOT equate to a Tactical EMS certification, automatic ability to act as a clinician in the hot/warm zones of incidents, or eligibility to join a tactical team in your jurisdiction. To maintain these credentials, renewal training is required every four years.
